looks like a Y33 for starters.

I too cant really understand what you are trying to say.

I dont really know alot about those cars but idk why the abs or anything else would get messed up by installing coilovers.

All I know is my suggestion to you is to get some aftermarket struts (monroe, kyb) and do a UAS system on it. It would allmost be like murder to take nice coilovers and slice and dice to get the UAS on it.

my 2 cents.

definitely do not want to go air over stock strut, it will look horrible and the ride will be super bouncy

im running insurance and UAS probably the best route to go..or any other coil over with adjustable dampening...but any setup is only going to be as good as the person installing it...so with that said do your research for a reputable installer

ABS and TCS have nothing to do with springs/coilovers/UAS, etc. If you do go UAS, put it over a set of decent (pref. 2-way) coilovers. UAS on stock struts rides like hell (that's what I had on my Y33 before I sold it.). KYBs might be better, but definitely stay away from Monroe ANYTHING. Their products are just a step above having no suspension at all.

it depends on what kind of ride quality you want, how low you wanna go fully dumped, how high you want to go when you need to raise the car. uas/coilover and airrunner has its pros and cons.
