Ksport Airtech Air Suspension?

Surfing the web i came across these:

http://jbkperformance.com/ksport/ksp.../i-235865.aspx

Seem perfect for me but crazy priced. My 7 when its done is going to be more show then it is go. But i want to be able to drop my car while cruzing but lift it to get into the entrances to stores without damaging my front end.(I live in a really hilly area) So are these good for track use? I dont plan to go all out just some fun from time to time. Also right now im sitting on stock cut springs by the previous owner. Thanks for any info ahead of time. - Nick

Most quality systems of that caliber are about 1000-1200 dollars more.

The only reason it's cheap is because it's made in southeast asia K-Sport.

So are you saying these aren't durable?

it's relatively new, but ksport has a spotty rep with coilovers...

Pretty much anything without quality R&D time behind it is not. K-Sport/D2 are infamous replicators that are known to have **** quality.

Yes I am biased.

Will I try any of these cheap products on my car? No.

Will an air suspension be good for the track? Hell no. I'm sure you could get around the track ok, but it won't be what anyone would call "good" for the track.

Add to the inappropriatness of them being an air suspension, K-Sports make really bad dampers: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showt...hp?t=123666252
