do they make a kit for our cars specifically? and if so, who is it available from?
also, where are you going to mount the tank and compressor?

they dont make air bags for our celica's, But air bag suspenions are univeral so it can put almost into any car.

Form my knowledge you dont need a tank or compressor. You can just fill the bags with air and leave it the same height.
my kit is upgraded to 1/2 lines, 1/2 valves, strut cylinders, 5 gallin tank, it a long tank so it will fit under the car where the spare tire goes or behind the bumber, 8 valves, and ten switches. i will be able to pankcake but not dog leg yet its running me about $3,000 kit and installed. i drop it off the 27th and will have it back the 30th. i will takes pics and let you know. yeah you have to have a tank and compressor.

Yeah my brother has air cylinders.. there sweet but im sure bags are much better.

Also the ride sucks, like they handle like ****.
i don't think the ride will be much better w/ bags. And they're a lot more work to put in. Atleast in trucks anyway. What a Pain in the arse.

The bags for cars are the same i think. Also they will tighten up so you can have more of a stiff ride for better handleing compared to riding on air.. lol
when you are done with the installation.. give us a review on how it went. like is there more road noise, bouncy, rough? ect..

go to www.airbagit.com the company that sells them

bag kit is made my chasis tech and they sell you "faster" kit for $2K kit called III for toyotas. hope this helps.

I am getting it as soon as I get money... taxes drained me

btw picture there does not have rear struts but they do ship them instead of those cylindrical things in top right corner
