Looking for a supplier of adjustable airbag suspension systems, or similar costing hydraulic setup.

Just bought a new car and speed bumps are impossible with it, need a system that will let me adjust ride hight from the car and see airbags/hydraulics as the only answer.

Also does anyone know if airbags can be raised higher than standard ride height??
At the moment the car sits on standard shocks and springs and still doesn't give me enough clearance to get over any speed bumps.

Any help would be mint,
Sean.

Had a look on Rayvern Hydraulics, sent them a e-mail too just waiting for them to get back to me.

The car is a Honda Civic Coupe, full Delta 4 kit with 18" ACE 201's.

Around £1000. Expensive but worth it.

Car is fine round town and such (except for the odd unexpected bump) its just when I get to a speed bump there is no chance.

Also the house I am moving into at uni has a dodgy drive, with airbags it would be simple to get the car on the drive. Much safer than left on the road.

Cheers Icy, expensive range that, £500 above the norm but worth a try. See if he can get the price lower, I aint after making it jump or owt, just want it to be adjustable between about an inch higher than standard and about a 40mm drop.

DS engineering do the kit for £999 and about 20-30 extra for delivery. Fitting is a piece of piss on those kits.

Yeah I thought the fitting of a kit was easy, couldnt understand the price for fitting really.

Yes the car is silver, with tints.

Cheers.
