Recommended Posts

A full set of R34 GTS-T HKS Hipermax II coilovers,

Spring Rates: F:7 / R:5

Condition: Used, no leaks or knocks, good working condition, came out of a R34 GTS-T (unsure what other models they will fit)

Located in Adelaide, inspection welcome.

$900

About Them:

The HKS Hipermax II coilover kits provide the ultimate in suspension tuning with 30-way dampening, threaded dual-chambered shock assemblies and perches for height adjustment. The design of the upper Pillowball mounts delivers improved steering response and tempered springs are included.

Tuning your vehicle’s suspension is one of the easiest ways to instantly improve overall performance. The HKS Hipermax II suspension, which offers both ride height and shock dampening adjustments, provides improved handling characteristics while maintaining your vehicle’s ride comfort. Ride height is adjusted by simply rotating the 60mm spring retainer perches around the chromed steel shock body. The dual interlocking spring retainer perches prevent spring movement and unwanted ride height changes. Dampening can be adjusted at 30 settings (20 on some applications) to deliver the desired shock compression and rebound stiffness for custom tailored driving characteristics. The included anodized aluminium upper Pillowball mounts retain spring placement and improve steering response and maintains suspension geometry. Additionally, some applications offer camber adjustments on the upper Pillowball mounts. Each HKS Hipermax II suspension system comes with all the needed adjustment wrenches, stiffness adjusting knobs, and miscellaneous hardware for complete installation and tuning.

Features:

* Chromed Steel shock body assembly with precision-cut threads

* Shortened cylinder body and piston stroke

* Single tube structure with large free piston

* Single tube structure with low-pressure nitrogen gas

* Dual oil and gas chambers

* Anodized aluminium Pillowball upper mounts

* Anodized aluminium spring perches

* Dual rate progressive coil springs

* Fully rebuildable

More Information:

- Single tube structure with inside base valve delivers sport performance and comfort ride. Damping force of HIPERMAX II is adjustable by 30 steps for various situations.

- HKS developed special oil for the damper series. The viscosity is not affected by oil temperature. Thus, the damper keeps on performing during continuous hard driving.

- Newly designed piston delivers quick response.

- The oil gallery for the piston was newly designed for ideal oil flow. As the valve response is quick, it achieves stable damping force from low piston speed.

- New designed oil gallery of base valve controls inside pressure for road holding at low piston speed.

- The structure of the oil gallery in the base valve was improved. Diameter of the cavity is optimised to ensure proper inside oil pressure to prevent cavitation. Due to the new design, it can still be a comfortable ride with high road holding performance even at low damper stroke speed.

- Free Piston divides oil and gas area. Oil and low pressure gas are completely divided by free piston. Thus, response of damping force is quick and stable.

- Low pressure gas area in the bottom part of the cylinder eliminates uncomfortable bumpy ride at low car speed.

Apologies for digging up an old thread - but I'm trying to adjust a rear set of these and can't get my head around the setup :S

I had my car lowered at the shop, but I think they've gone too far on rear left as it's clunking around a bit. I wanted to raise the rear slightly (lengthen the shock) so it's not too short.

It states "Ride height is adjusted by simply rotating the 60mm spring retainer perches around the chromed steel shock body",however in my mind, this action would simply preload the spring?

I tried winding up the 60mm rings about 15mm but it didn't seem to have any affect on the clunking, so I assume it either preloaded the spring (not lengthen the shock as intended) or it's another issue?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds like they are knocking. If so you need to get them rebuilt.

    • So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.
    • Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
    • So awesome! I love the RB with the exhaust on display.
    • NO HITS PRICE DROP   ENGINE - $8.5k ONO TRANSMISSION - $1.8k ONO  
    • If it has had a code in the recent past, the code should still be there waiting to be read.
