I was full time student and had a part time job so there wasn't that much room to save but after about a year I was able to afford the air suspension. The system I went with was the Airlift 3P and I absolutely loved it. I did own a Toyota Celica before this (first car) but I didn't ever do anything besides plasti dip the wheels. So, this was first "mod" ever. I was super nervous but I was able to install the kit all by myself. I just took my time to really put my all into the install and to completely understand how the entire system works.

It took 7 days because I had other things to do throughout the week. I was able to pick up the management, compressors (440cc and 400cc), 5 gallon tank, airlines, and fittings from a local on the facebook marketplace for about $1000. I bought brand new airlift front and rear struts for about $2000. So in total it only cost me $3000 + some tools that I did not have in my garage. The process was pretty easy; I wish I took more pictures. To be fair, this was a very reasonable price because I did all the work myself. I've heard of shops charging $3-4k for installs that at times could be rushed and half assed.
