Air bag kit for Aristo- good one? *link*

http://www.airbagit.com/product_p/fbs-lex-04-kit3.htm

Hey guys, looking for a bag kit for the Aristo. I know VERY little about bag kits for Cars as ive always been performance based, and they are not as common in Aus as they are in the u.s. Everyone seems to go the Air runners, but the kits are like 4K us? So how does that compare to this kit from airbagit.com? Its only 2k much of a difference in style/ride to the airrunner kits?

quality...its like buying cheap tires.they wont last as long as decent ones, they will be noisy and lack of quality.
not the best example, but works:

same as with suspension. u would rather save up and buy a decent kit which will give you trouble free ride or you buy a cheap as airbagit kit that will mostly leak , bags arent as good as proper firestone ones, compressor will fuck out and valves will leak, etc etc:)
i wanted to get an airbagit kit but my mates who are in minitrucking said to stay away from cheap bags, they are nothing but trouble...thats why i started saving up for a decent system

chassis tech is pretty infamous for being the worst crap ever made.

yeh dude you pretty much need to go UAS or Airrunner, or piece together a whole kityourself. either way, not likely to have change from at least $5-6k AUD unless you know exactly what you're buying and can put it all in yourself :P

Thanks for your help guys. Wasnt aware that chasis tech had a bad rep, but now i do. :)
Im not in the business of buying cheap crap (as some of you are aware :P) so the heads up is much appreciated. I was kinda buying into the whole "buy straight off the producer" pitch, so assumed id be saving around 1K which would almost bring it into line with AirRunner and UAS stuff.
