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???

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.
