Anyone have a lift system

Looking for feedback on a lift system. Specifically if you’ve added it with H&R lowering springs .

I have the HLS2 from KW and it's pretty awesome but expensive.
it's mainly to lift the front end of the car.
I don't have lowering springs on my car because you can manually do it on the GT R
What do you need to know?

Thanks for the reply. I looked into the KW setup and it does look like a great combo but like you said expensive and additional “handling I wasn’t really looking for. It seems most of the systems out there whether hydraulic or air, require the springs to be linear in diameter the whole length. That doesn’t seem to be the case with the H&R springs (or factory). Also, the air systems, for immediate lift, require a pretty large tank and wondering where people mounted it in the GT without losing 1/4 of the trunk, plus the noisy pump.
