Hks Hipermax Ii Coilovers

[Josh]

What do you guys reckon of the HKS Hipermax II Coilovers?(For a 32 GTSt) I was originally going to get some Tein HE drift spec ones - but have been informed that they are no longer available.. They will be used for drift(Track) and street driving (Comfort on the road is not a big issue) Anyone used them? I'm pretty sure they are the same coilovers that HKS use in their street class Chaser in the new D1 comp..

EDIT* I already did a search and it did not come up with fruitful results.. I think the closest result was Hipermax Drag coilovers.. only 3 different results..

yea are they any good? i want those too but anyone know what price and where to get them?

[Josh]

for what car dude?

I'm looking at getting mine off nengun for around 1930 delivered to WA. PLus whatever import tax is on them. Not 100% whether I'm getting these ones or not - waiting for opinions..

[azn-det]

33gtr I want it for drifting and dragging though

[m&m]

I have them on my GTR and they are the best coilovers I have used.I currently have Cusco on my S15 and I had Apexi on my GTR.I got them from RMS in Mitcham very very cheap,cheaper than Nengun.Give Henry a call on 0437 688 866.

[Josh]

Are they new dude? Cos the thing with nengun is they already have my money for the teins - but now I can't get them(the teins), they asked if I want a refund or to change the items.. thats why I am asking about them..

They sound pretty good from what you are saying tho.

[m&m]

Yep,brand new,RMS doesnt sell second hand gear.I did get a good price because I have spent way too many thousands of dollars with him.

He is a sponsor on the Nissansilvia site.If you ever need anything,just shop there,it leaves our sponsors section for dead.Hommerrules was doing them for $1899 landed in Oz.

[Josh]

Thats a not bad price - I would get them from nengun for a little more than that plus whatever import taxes/duty on top.

How would you say they'd cope with drifting?

[m&m]

My GTR is not really setup for drift so I cant say.Higher spring rates are best suited for drifting,not sure what they would be for your car.

[azn-det]

Hey so which one is better hks or apexi? and both same price???

[m&m]

Apexi came on the car,HKS is far better,but they are new,Apexi had done xxxxxkms???

just a heads up homerrules is mrskyline on this forum if you wanna pm him.

can i ask how much you got em for m&m??

[m&m]

$1900 over the counter,no 6 week wait,no extra taxes.

When did Thuy become a sponsor?He was complaining that no one would reply when he inquired.Or isnt he a sponsor yet?

[azn-det]

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Hey dude - would I get a similar price If I bought from him?

[m&m]

All you can do is ask.I have easily spent $10,000 there though,and he did already have them in stock.Tell him Markos gave you his number,it might help.

[Josh]

Will PM him now to check it out

no he's not a sponsor as of yet. best not to ask why and let the process take its course. but i met him when i bought some coilovers off him. had a good yarn and i was quite impressed at how he runs his business. he will probs be the man to go to for me for parts as his prices are decent and well...he lives just around the corner from me...lol.

but back on topic. :lol:

[m&m]

Yep,he's always come through for me as well.

[Josh]

PM'd him. Very helpful
