Both airrex and airlift have tracked cars with their system and they held their own. Of course a high end double adjustable coilover with double adjustable damping and external oil reservoir will outperform but 99% of us arn't building dedicated track cars. A suspension system that is good all around is what's more piratical and a air suspension system is what fits the bill.

There are a select few on here running air. I will be probably by the end of the month, so I can report back if you want. Not like it matters, because as soon as I do, someone will come in telling me how coilovers are a better setup, that they handle better, and I chose the wrong car lol.
AirLift struts for the BRZ should be hitting shelves soon. |

I mainly just don't want to RUIN the car. If the Air Lift system is AT LEAST as good as stock (which is awesome in my opinion), then I think I'm leaning more towards that. I have a GTR if I want to do some serious track duty so I think I'm set. |

I guarantee that it will outhandle stock and most aftermarket suspension setups.
You won't ruin it..but I will give you some feedback once I receive the air struts/setup. Your reasons above ps are exactly why I went with an air setup. |

I'm, actually looking into this myself as in Sydney the roads are terrible and my driveway is very steep, I think the only reasons we head more positive news from airrex compare to air lift is because they actually haven't release yet or not as long in the market for public for people to review it.

Btw, has anyone put price into the factor?
I actually don't see many reseller for airlift frs products, most dealer sells airlift products are targeted for VW and Audi only.
