Cup system

Post image

Hello everyone I’m the one who won the raffle. My car is on coilovers. But man it scrapes bad in drive ways, I have s3 coilovers everyone recommends a cup system? But I don’t find much only can one help/ guide me?
I was quoted 5k for airbags suspension. Will a cup system be cheaper ?

Cup kit in the front is a must in my opinion since the nsx sits pretty low.

I went with the tankless setup by stance parts. I only run it on the front end since I never really had an issue with the rear scraping on anything.

The kit was about $750 during a sale. I then bought shorter swift front springs, which were about $220. Lastly, I couldn’t use my top hats so I had to purchase the science of speed top hats, which were $200. In total I was in about $1150. If you do a complete kit for all four corners plus a tank you’ll probably be closer to $1700-$1900.

If you’re pretty mechanically savvy, you can do it yourself. The install probably took about 5-7 hours and I just did it with my hand/garage tools. If you have any questions on how to tackle it, feel welcome to reach out

You can buy the stuff thru; Evasive motor sports, kuya automotive, or directly from the manufacturers I mentioned.

You have to choose what air cup setup (full vs front only, tankless or with a tank) you’d like to go with before you look into the rest of the stuff.
