UZZ32 does not use airbags, and it would be a massive effort to graft a UZZ32 active hydraulic suspension setup into a lesser soarer. It requires a myriad of pumps, valves and sensors and ecu's to operate.

UZZ31 has an airbag system but it operates fairly slowly, and as the struts are 20 years old, they are prone to failure. New ones are available at ~$900 each.

I have seen coilovers with a small airbag built in, this basically allows you to raise the car for getting over speedbumps, but won't let you slam it with a button.

Otherwise it's an aftermarket airbag setup.

Whichever way you go, I think it's going to be a 4k + exercise to do it PROPERLY and not bodge it together bogan style.
