CRAZY Cheap AIR RIDE! TURBO DIESEL Swapped 240z on BAGS

video uh this video specifically although we are going to make

bags

we are a bag body kits and wheels channel now we are going to make

bags

for a variety of reasons you know all of those In short, a big point I want to touch on is that if you already have threaded shocks and you want to use bags, we discovered a method where you can get your bags for about 45-50 dollars a piece, I think that's what we paid for are. This will also be done as a bit of a science experiment because we don't know how long these particular bags will last.

However, I have a theory that they are no different from the high-end ones, so, without further ado. Now, let's get straight to the video, so let's talk a little bit about the system itself. We're using the Airlift Performance 3ph, so this is their kind of high end, it has all the features that the 3p would have, but it also has this little height. sensors, so you would mount them somewhere on the car, we have to make brackets for these and then it uses these push rods and it's a height based management system, which means it has its preset settings for the height and the aim and adjust the pressure as The reason height preference is really important to us is because we want this car to still be usable like on a track, we want to race it, so with a pressure based system just the Management knows how to store your bags. at a certain pressure, now the pressure is not always equal to the height.

An example of that would be if you were cornering super fast in a corner and you load the bags on the exit or yes, the exterior of the car will actually try to slow down. your pressure because you know the pressure will naturally increase in the corner and this will make your body roll worse and this is where all the bags give you shitty handling characteristics, well they can do that but if you have a height based system, I think accuair most of their stuff was based on hype um but uh airlift performance you just know they came out I don't know if it was recently but now they have the basis of hype so that's why we got this .

In fact, keep the car level so you know you're aiming for your height, whatever inches and however many inches are for that side and that side, and when you're cornering really hard, it's actually going to increase the pressure on the outside of the car. to keep you flat. Check out the trajectory around the corner, if you haven't seen the video inside, it's totally sexy here. Now some of you complained about the wheel. We have this dinosaur wheel here now as a replacement for the other one because it's not as worn out. It has a little wear but yeah it has character and it's a nice flash, a little more color the only thing we have going for us here are the red seats but you'll notice the leather is in very good condition. but it has a little scratch there but that's not a big deal to me so this is the wheel that is rocking now and making the wood grain change pointless so it's fine in the video of the bag, so the height is transferred. it's kind of like this basically like a little tps so we literally make sure the tire has enough clearance for this and basically when the suspension goes up and down there's a push rod attached to this and it goes up and down and It's like literally brain death to install something like this, so I think what you can do with all three, you know, no, no, I shouldn't be doing so much hype, man, but if you buy just the 3p Kit, i think it supports height upgrade anytime you want to do it, so you can buy the 3p and then when you have more money or whatever, or decide that 3p isn't good enough for you, you can just upgrade to the 3h by getting these little sensors and the wiring harness, I think next comes the push rod, this is what is going to activate that when the suspension moves more or less as it goes up and down, this will go up and down like this and then , based on this the air management system knows quite well how to adjust the pressure, it will aim at the height, it will practically ignore, it will not ignore the pressure, but that will not be what matters, what will import is to prefer the height you enter in your presets, this is very easy to install, in fact yes, I was reading some reviews where people were complaining that they were complicated to install, now I don't know what kind of car you are in trying. put them in, I guess there may be apps where this isn't as fun, but it still works in Mike, this is as easy as it gets most of the time, basically, if you can't do it, you should.

Don't do anything in your car, that's where our troubles will come, that disgruntled guy, okay guys, witness the magic in action, he knows, he knows where it is, it's

crazy

, this is the poor guy's magnetic

ride

, he's okay, let's go. to move on to how to convert your coils and you need to have coils for this to work on two bags and how you can do it for about 50 bucks a bag which is better than the 200 per bag that you normally spend uh either the universal ones that they put out, the universal ones are usually pretty big and don't fit a lot of things, so this will keep the size pretty close to the coil itself, which is another important thing, so let me just take one coil.

I'm going to remove this car and a bag and show you what you have to do, so let me show you first. I'm going to turn this into bags and show you how to get the right bag for your coilover, whatever you have and how to do it for not that much money, so first let's take this apart and hopefully it doesn't have a lot of preload, it doesn't kill me, that's it. the wrong thing, no, I was not prepared. to kill me, that's good, take this hat, except we don't need this, we don't need this, we don't need this, okay, so we're going to leave the cap on, you can leave this on too, but we won't sit down. a coil so I guess it doesn't matter so this is coiled in at the same pitch as your gas shock this is just a shock now coil over means coil over shock instead of having them separately like you sometimes see on trucks and other cars and things of that nature, so you need to seal, so also on the inside there are two O-rings that will seal on this surface right here and then to seal the top, you put this O-ring on and then It's beveled in here to accept an O-ring right there, so we're going to put this in and then it should screw on, we're going to thread it until it won't screw on anymore, which is correct to me it seems to sit right there. this lock ring goes back up now this part here this is the spacer that allows us to put this hat back on and have it indexed on that and then on the other side of this nut this is all the hardware that was on the coil on this No are things that you have to get or buy, you literally just have to buy the right bag and this whole thing just works, you have a bag on a bag on a bag on it's a bag here yes, it's a bag and no If you worry about the strange From this, we will show you how to deal with it.

Next, this type of sheath is supposed to roll over this tapered part, so what we're going to do is just air it out so it's happy and then we'll see it retract, that's good, once you have the foreskin, you can see it as curling up over the top, so when the car has weight and it has some air pressure when we lower it because this is a shock, obviously it will retract. The whole bag is just going to slide down this tapered part and that's how you do it and this is pretty much ready to go in the car now um obviously I have to tighten some things up that's really as easy as if you buy the bag suitable for your Roll up, I'm going to show you how to do it right now, okay, so the website that you can use to do this as

cheap

ly as possible is called airmechs.com.

I'm pretty sure they're just a manufacturer of a bunch of different bag suppliers, so if we go to their FAQ section, this is all we use to find the right bags for our coils, you'll see they want you to measure a a lot of different things, that is, follow the instructions we find about the most important things. the nut thread on top, the coil spring thread, which is a, I think, in this table and then b, which is the sealing surface of the bag for your air shock, which you know is underneath of its coil spring in original form, if we go.

In the air bellows section, you can see that they have some sort of coil installed and they list a bunch of different brands of coil over suspension. CX Racing wasn't actually here, so I literally went through the entire list by clicking on these. one by one and I found a product that had the correct dimensions that we measured earlier, we'll get to this table in a second, but if we go beyond that, I could show you the exact bag that we have, it has all the right ones. it has the correct thread pitch at the top m12 it has um 52x2 which is the big choke thread at the bottom, the biggest thread and then it has a sku and if we go up here we could find that sku and it tells us all the information about the bag, like the maximum width, so we can make sure we don't exceed our space limits, it has its pressure rating, it has all the other important information you need to make the right decision, so if you just spend some time on this website is really not that bad and you can understand it, then of course the best part is that if we add them to our shopping cart, four bags equals just under 250 dollars which is the going price for one bag if you get for most other sources that's how you get airbags super

cheap

so I'm editing the video right now and I was actually going to leave it on how to get airbags for cheap but I've actually decided take one more step and I'll show you how to get everything you need for a functional air kit for under five hundred dollars, like everything, if you have coils and you want a functional kit, here's how you can do it so that instead of managing it electronically , You could use manual paddle valves, so the way they work is they are neutral in the center.

Air up in one direction. Air down in the other direction. Here you have two of them for 30 dollars. This can control your front and rear if you really want all four corners. I can get you another set of these for another thirty bucks and you get four corner control, at the very least you'll need an air tank. This one is great because it costs $85, weighs 5 gallons, and comes with a pressure switch that is also easy to use to turn the pump on and off. You will need an air hose. You could purchase 50 feet of DoD approved quarter inch, which is enough for the air system you will need. a bomb look at this 502 of these sold five stars safe bet on this one will do the job well here is a ghetto but effective way to line something like this the only thing I would probably add is to first hit the front and on the back to add some gauges so you know what psi your bags are at, but other than that this is basic, you could do it this way, it would work and it would cost less than 500 bucks, not only does it have adjustability. with the bag, you have adjustability, you know threaded coils, you know how they used to fit.

This is important because we can pretty much adjust the bag pressure at specific

ride

heights, so we want our ride around the ride height to be pretty tight. At a specific psi, the amount of air you have in your bags will be similar to the spring rate, so this will allow us to get a spring rate that feels good and drives well at the height we want. Do we have to remove this entire strut to adjust it? Yeah, so it's not going to be a fun process, so we're trying, we're looking at a range of travel at this point, basically, we're going all the way.

The tire was vented by touching the frame here and then it was completely vented by driving around, yeah, well, I'm probably not that bad, no, you know, and the whole time, vented we did the math, the datsun literally wouldn't be. able to compress them yeah so we'll see what happens we've got almost everything set up we've got all the bags installed and now we're going to make it work and this is the diagram and this is just a bunch of accessories and things of that nature hook it all up make sure that it doesn't leak and let's do it I guess this is what we have we have all our lines directly into the manifold it's plugged in uh let's turn the key and see if that comes on I guess it's oh there it goes wow holy it's okay oh god scare me turn it off real quick okay so we're going through the setup wizard and it says vehicle now move are you ready?

I mean, yeah, go ahead, that's it. so fast you can't even see it ecu calibration check step 11 of 17. yeah look at that door oh jesus okay it seems to be working pretty well looks like we might have a leakon the hose in the driver's side rear bag, but I mean it's holding up pretty well, so right now it's at max ride height, it's in monster truck mode, uh, we have a preset for max low , can you go to the middle? This would be like driving at the right height, damn wide guy, hit him, but bro what's up with California?

That's right, I just bought a single cab six-cylinder Silverado first, that's way cooler, okay guys, as promised, we're going to pick two winners for the giveaway in this video.
