Here's is the latest product from Ksport USA.

Unlike air bag suspension systems of the past where consumers must piece together a complete kit from scratch, often at a compromise to reliability and performance, KSport’s revolutionary Airtech Suspension System comes as a complete, model specific kit that is 100% bolt-on with no custom modifications needed. Each Airtech Suspension System is fully developed for a particular vehicle with model specific dampers, air compressors, lines, wiring harnesses and instructions. KSport is proud to kiss the incomplete air bag suspension systems of the past, goodbye!

All Airtech Suspension Systems include KSport’s monotube coil over dampers with air bags that are pre-installed at the factory. All dampers utilize billet, 6061 aluminum components with zinc electroplated steel shafts that are resistant to salt, rust, dirt and other harmful environmental conditions. The dampers offer 36 levels of adjustment, simultaneously altering rebound and compression. Ride height is adjusted through the air bags which can be controlled internally in the cockpit, or remotely with KSport’s award winning keyfob-style height adjustment controller. Height adjustment can also be performed on the damper itself by using KSport’s unique adjustable mounting technology, which allows height adjustment without sacrificing suspension travel or ride comfort.

Airtech Suspension System kits come complete with Viair air compressors, all necessary wiring and plumbing materials, instructions, and height adjustment controls for in-car and remote use. With the convenience of Airtech’s bolt-on installation, excellent ride comfort and versatility, KSport has changed the way enthusiasts approach and utilize high quality air bag suspension systems. With no compromise in quality, safety and performance, Airtech Suspension Systems are a must have item for anyone interested in leading-egde technology, at a competitive price.

Now this is a cool product IMO. I know it's not cheap though.

What's the price for the entry-level kit?
Total weight of the kits?
What's the height range?

Group buy possibility?

There is a group buy possibility. But given the price it might be hard to achieve, but I'm willing to work with anyone that wants a kit.

Total weight is around 70lbs.

The basic kit retails for $3900, but I can do significantly better than that.

As for the height range, I'll need to contact Ksport and see what it is, none of the info I have says anything about it.

But if there are a couple of people interested, I can definitely do a group buy and make it worth your while.

It's everything I ever wanted in one package.....it's just truly out of my budget.

Never say never. PM me and I'll see what I can do for you.

Also, I'm trying to push the idea of a group buy for these on a couple of other forums I go to.

They make it for any car that ksport already has a coilover made for.

If one were to get the basic kit, is there an upgrade kit sold to make it a pro kit later on?

I'm not sure. I can talk to Ksport but it's going to have to wait until next week. Half of the industry is in Vegas right now for the SEMA show.

From what I understand no.. I may be mistaken but I have looked into these before (sold a few) and I am not awar of any way to make a eco kit a pro kit.
