Now to the fun Mods
That is a Greddy Intake in the box.
Airrex Suspension and Accuair Air Management is the direction the rest this build will go towards. I did not take photo of the Accuair boxes because there is nothing to see but white boxes.
This thread will be heavily photo geared as I will be doing the installation myself and will be documenting the process as I go. This will be a slow process as I work 6 days a week and I will work on it here and there. This is my first attempt at Air suspension as well but I have no doubt this will come out exactly how I envisioned with my technical experience and knowledge in the Car Audio field. So here comes the fun fabricating and running of wires.
Bought a Circuit Breaker to power the compressors etc, Will run 4 gauge wire, which is overkill for Air suspension but I will likely run a Amplifier Sub woofer setup in the near future as well, so this will take care of both in one wire run.
Here is some photos of the bracket I made to hold the Circuit Breaker.
Started off as this.
Did some measuring, cutting and bending and ended up with this.
Put some paint on it.
Before
After
Wire now in the trunk
Distribution Block mounted
its amazing the attention they put into this Mark Levinson Amp. The finish on it is so nice but it is hidden away.
So now to figure out how to mount the air tank etc.
I did not want to do like every other simple setup I have seen out there where people just mount everything onto the floor with exo mounts. I wanted to keep my nice Lexus trunkmat intact and usable. So here we have it. Floating tank behind the rear seat.
Seats are still able to go back up.
Quick test to see if it can hang with the extra weight of two compressors. (does not feel safe, so that night I stopped right there.
I have resolved the unbalanced weight with another third mounting point by making another bracket from the top of the tank brackets and now all is secure. Seems like I was so into getting it done that I did not get a photo of the process of making this bracket. Strange.
Here we continue on with figuring out which way all wires will be ran and tailored. Hot mess
I will be sending the brackets and the tank to get them powder coated soon and order some more wire management items before I can continue on.
