it slams pretty low...maybe low enough to luck a LITTLE rim...but using the stock bags and compressor, it's pretty slow...a slot slower than airrunners...

thats cool, not a problem for me since its my daily driver. would it be possible to add a small tank to help the process?

hey man thanks for the pics. now is that JUST the ride controller no other suspension mods and also what size wheel are you running? looks like 18's but looks can be deceiving sometimes ;) also how is the ride on superlow?
^^ you cant drive in superlow mode.

Well, you can, but it will feel like shit. Kinda like taking the springs out of a normal strut system and driving around on the bumpstops.
It also ruins your airbags quicker than you can say "damn i wish i had coilovers" :)

cool. thats what i figured. im gonna try and set it up where when i get out of my car and hit the lock button it''ll lower completely and when i hit unlock to get in the car it'll go back to regular ride height. could i plumb in a small air tank to help? anyone ever done that?

I wanted to do that, but never got around to it. I think the easiest way would be to get some manual control over the dump valves, and make it so that you could set it to full dump when you switched off the ignition, then when it starts up, it will raise the car as part of the suspension levelling.
Some of the better height controllers have speed-dependant height settings. You can set it up so that it is slammed when stopped, and raises as soon as you start moving. But it can cause problems at traffic lights, cos you will be slammed when you start moving (I have had experience with this)
Only problem is that the height changes are quite slow. It usually takes about 1-2 minutes to raise from fully slammed, by which time the rest of the traffic will be really honking their horns!!

i am running 18's. the air ride controller and stock air ride is all that i had in those pictures, no other suspension mods. i actually daily drove my car on superlow, and it's bumpier than shit. ever been in a lowrider on hydraulics? it's worse than that. you get used to it though! plus it looks really sick =] but yeah, driving on superlow all the time blew out my front passenger side airbag in about a month or so. the other 3 are fine though, anybody need some? haha

how can you roll on L? Everytime I start to roll it goes out of L and into 9 which is not super low mode. I think you are referring to the 9 setting, which is low but not superlow.

Have you got yours off safety mode? Maybe its something they built into the newer controllers. I had an ASG63x, which was great until it my airbag popped.

Actually yeah, it wont do that, and it wont allow you to change the height while driving. Safe mode varies between models. If you tell me what you have i can find out.
Are you sure the 9 you are seeing isnt the 'height monitor mode' showing the current height of the struts as opposed to the height you have set it for?

I have an ASC680. When I put it in anthing higher than 5 6-L the screen becomes red. It will still drop the car when its not in motion. If I start to roll while in L setting, it will raise the car back up to 9 setting. As soon as I stop again it will lower to L. Does that mean I am in safe mode? And wasnt there a way to change the damper settings on this thing?!!

That doesnt sound like safety mode. But the ASC680 is one of the latest models so the L->9 thing must be new.
The damper settings would be under TEMS Hard. Might be in Japanese: TEMS ハード

Would you know where that menu would be located and would you happen to know how to adjust them?

Not on your model. But it is only one setting; hard or normal. When it is on Normal, the damper settings are based on the factory switch on your dash (which is sport/normal i believe). Hard is one step up from sport.
If you have the japanese instruction manual i could tell you straight away.

you can roll on superlow! it's as easy as putting it on superlow and then turning off your air suspension. i tried to do it with the air left on, but it does raise it up as soon as you start moving. so i just put it on superlow and then turned off the suspension.
