Big suspension question
Ok On my gtu ( hopefully will b picking up tm )
It's has the factory automatic adj suspension
It currently has adj kyb shocks and rsr spring
Will the auto adjust work the suspension as it is now??
I thought if I set the car to sport. Manually set the shocks my self and then put the adjuster on it. And just delt with what ever it gave me for comfort off of the normal setting It would b kinda cool .....
But will this work???

My car came with the AAS and I could not tell the difference between the two settings when it was working so you are not missing much. I have a better set up now and the car handles a lot better.
To the OP, only the GXL came with AAS. If your car is really a GTU, it is possible that somebody just swapped the interior trim panels and that the button on your console for AAS isn't connected to anything anyway.
All the wiring is ther and everything to go with
So how come it won't inter twine with new shocks or coilovers??
Could I gust splice the new adj suspension with their coil overs????

The problem will be the actuators.
They were designed to work with the original shocks and it's highly unlikely they'd work with anything else.
Not only will the mechanical interface be a problem (how the actuator physically attaches to the shocks adjusting rod...maybe possible with an adaptor of some sort) but the actuator's throw (how much it moves) is unlikely to match an aftermaket shock's calibration.
Remember, the stock AAS only has two settings and most modern shocks have a greater range of adjustability...the stock actuators would not be able to cope with the fine range needed.
