Ran into this product on supraforums-

Welcome to the official TOP SECRET Homepage (http://www.topsecretjpn.com/roberuta.shtml)

Looks to be promising item... Especially for the hardparkers on this board.... MVP motorsports says it only takes about a day to install.

my thoughts exactly

+1, it's cost prohibitive for a market like this, but for some higher end cars, I could see doing it.

spending a couple grand to save a diff, my oil pan and a 5 thousand dollar titanium exhaust wouldn't be totally out of the question.

We have shipped a few of these kits around the world. KW is now offering something very similar. We will be installing the KW setup on a customers EVO we are building.

KW automotive North America Inc. Suspension -- Coilovers -- Shocks -- Springs (http://www.kw-suspension.com/en/)

Scroll down, it is the HLS system (Hydraulic Lift System)

this would be awesome, especially if its individual control over each corner.

Aren't these just Roberuta cups? Also I think Airforce suspension came out with a kit already.
Also these are only to be used at low speeds for short periods of time to get over speed bumps, steep driveways, etc.

yea these have been around for a few years already now. They are not meant to ride inflated. You are sapose to set your ride height as you as you want, then use the cups inflated when you need to get up a drive way or speed bump. Lambos and larger sports cars might need these. Even long ass luxury sedans.
