Ok ... So I am not bags savvy AT ALL !!!
I am looking to bag my Z. I know how expensive it is, although after a conversation with my cousin from back home (Brasil) he told me those things there cost about R$800-1500 which US dollars should be around $400-1000. Ever since then, I've been considering bags. Now my question is. What are the components necessary for it ?
I am 100% positive I am NOT buying the tank with air since it can't be on a plane. But what other parts would I need ? Also I hear some people saying they need coilovers for bags. Some say you do not.
What's the verdict on that ?

Thank you all for your input. And please don't ask me questions like "why would you put a Z on bags?" Some people have Zs for the track. Some for the look. To each it's own.

Thank you again.

Probably best to post this in the Suspension section.

And a search I did there.

I think the price is closer to $4-5000 to do air suspension on the Z.

I know. I know.
But in Brasil they're a lot cheaper. That's why I was asking what's the components that I'd need because I'd purchase it down there, expect for the compressed air tank. Now the other parts I'd get everything from there since its cheaper. So I wanted to know what do I need.

Not too many people here on bags, But Yup they are expensive 3 to 4 times the cost of a decent set of coil overs is my estimate.

Member: 2theextreme has the "Smurf" on bags, You may what to pm him to get first hand experience and a good ball park of the total cost.

I wanted bags as well, but I was quoted last week on the accu air kit at $3600. I decided to spend my money else where.

Yup, but that's the e-level kit. I'd say that's one of the best available. I think I'm gonna prolong that investment until my z isn't my daily driver.
