ZT on Air Suspension
 

Well, the idea has been in the back of my head since I bought my ZT some time ago and it's drawing closer to becoming a reality!

Soon enough I will be dropping my 2005 ZT off at a friends workshop to have a full front & rear air suspension system built and installed.

The system will run in conjunction with my Train Horn set up which is currently installed with a small air tank and compressor. I've got an 8 Gallon air-tank to replace the existing 2 Gallon, and we'll also be running a stronger compressor to compensate for the difference in capacity.

Jaydan (my friend the fabricator & master of air) has had a quick look at what he'll be working with and is confident that it shouldn't be too difficult. There will be some customization required for the front however he doesn't believe it to be difficult.

I will post here with updates and eventually turn this into a project thread.
However here is a teaser photoshop I shot & edited today ;)

Sounds interesting, please keep us updated :cool:

Yep like to see the how to and instal please :D

Wicked idea please keep us updated:D

Best of luck, hope it all goes well. It's something I've always wanted to do but didn't want to risk reliability.
If it wasn't my work car I'd certainly be looking into it.

Look at that picture! :drool4:
I'm so happy to see this happening, I've always imagined the zt to sit low with some stance like that.
I've wanted to do something similar to my zt ever since I bought it and I'll go with the bmw coilover option this summer.
Hope everything goes well!

What suspension units a you going to use?

Fathead is selling his tourer on air suspension

Thanks for the feedback guys :)


Will most likely be running 'Slam Specialists' air springs although I'll be leaving it up to Jaydan as he does these setups daily!

My Citroen BX Estate used to have that stance :D:getmecoat:
