HKS Hypermax Coil-Over Shocks? pretty to look at but!

[JaseR33]

Whats the ride like in these Hipermax 2's. The springs are rated at F 7kg R 5 kg right? Does anyone know how heavy the kit weighs as I'm looking to get these or Tein HA's from Japan.

I had this problem in my car with the old tanabe setup..... was very quiet initially but eventually got worse.. ended up being cos the rear left was leaking. Chucked them in the bin and got a new set

That was the same with mine as well. I had Tanabe's before going to the Hipermax.

Now that I have the HKS's, it's happening again, and the HiperMax are supposed to be brand new.

Are there any suggestions to a good suspension place that could check these out.

thanks.

endorean, where the struts enter the body(the hole they stick out of in the engine bay) u will be able to see a mount that the strut sits on, it doesnt sit directly onto the body.

for the front they are filled with ball bearings so they can turn... hese could be crushed..

the rear ones can be damaged causing clunking noises too.

Thanks' for the info siksII....

If that's the case, then I may not even have these things in all my shocks... I seriously dont remember any mounts at all on the body.

is there any where that I can find replacements for these mounts. somewhere like Just Jap?

cheers.
