NEED SOME OPINIONS...
i am pieceing together a air ride setup for my infiniti m35x...i came across a good deal and picked up a used setup...came with 3 uas bags..tank..lines..8-1/2" solenoid valves..and an eai switchbox...i was planning on doing a coilover/air setup.
1. i need a compressor.....anyone have any recommendations on what brand or model number to buy?
2. i might sell off the solenoid valves and get a manifold block...any recomendations on which brand to use?
any other m35 recomendations will be appreciated as well...thanks

Driftgirls's selling a used 450 viar compressor on the suspension section... I've been eyeing for a 2nd one but it's silver & my new compressor is chrome so that's the only thing keeping me from copping it... if you want 2 new & at a good price, check these guys out...

This accuair valve block is pretty cool, & it will clean ur ish up nicely...

I'm still missing some stuff for my air system (air is coming out too fast when air up or down) but I've rode it & imo bag over coilovers is a waste of money bruh... bags over OEM struts is a very nice ride... low, high, whatever... it's comfortable & it's the best suspension setup I've had, I'll tell u this much, if I was an older dude I'd probably go bags & ride 4x4... that's how nice my ride feels & handles.

first recommendation, get 2 compressors. that way when, not if, one fails you're not stuck. i do not recommend used compressors. i do recommend viar 444c dual pack. best bang for the buck imo.
i also recommend a manifold valve. the accuair vu-4 is nice if you're using e-level or switch speed. if not any quality maifold will do (asco, gc, etc.). traditional valves are unecessary headache and are just tooo bulky for car applications imo.

I say get one compressor, one tank, and route your exhaust outlet valve back into the tank. Or you can do all of the above. I typically dont like the blow off noise of bags, and mufflers? come on.. lol. The recirc saves on how much the compressor has to turn on, and well its a cool idea cause i do the same for all of my air tools:shrug:

@Pete, I'll try to take some today so u can see what it looks like... like I said, I'm just in love at how smooth the ride is... I agree with OG 100% on what he said, compressors hv a short lifespan & especially if they were played with a lot. I was just pointing out your options & I was advised by the guys on here to get another compressor cuz if mine fails, I'm pretty much stuck AND it reduces the strain on the compressor working solo & extending its lifespan.
Also, remember u need to get the brackets done from UAS too brah, unless the setup was from a Y50 M...

Thanks kouki. How do you route the exhaust back in? Are you using a check valve?
Thanks again blanco. I like the 2 compressor idea just because the luck I have my compressor will die and I'll be stuck all the way down.
