The HKS Hipermax IV GT Coilovers are high performance 1-way dampening adjustable coilovers. They implement an inverted monotube piston design for improved reliability on the track and are 30-step adjustable. Height is adjustable separately via fully threaded bodies for a range of 0 to 3 inch drop on all 4 corners.
These are the ideal set of coilovers for a driver seeking to improve street and track performance on their GT-R. While sleeve and spring kits allow for easy height and dampening adjustment (by maintaining use of the magnetic suspension), the level of performance is limited to a certain threshold. A true driver will be able to easily distinguish the increase in handling performance despite the minimal loss in comfort.
Features
- Inverted Monotube design for constant & stable suspension feedback
- 30-step 1-way Dampening Adjustable
- PNE coilover coating (better than anodizing) for corrosion protection
- Newly designed bleed needle that adjusts dampening from low and middle/high speeds for improved ride comfort
- Dust boots included for debris protection
- Aluminum used where possible to reduce un-sprung weight
- Special HKS formulated piston oil used
- Made in Japan
Single Tube Damper Design
Mono tube dampers allow for more accurate and stable control and adjustment of dampening. Lower ride height and centre of gravity gives a more stable ride.
Dust Boot
Protect the shaft from the flying stones.
PNE Coating
Using this special surface coating provides 5 times better durability over standard galvanising. This prevents build-up around the threads of the adjustment areas allowing for easier height adjustment.
"M Shaft"
With the new design of cylinder shaft since the HIPERMAX M-1, MAX IV increased the cylinder shaft size to have a firm damping even at a little stroke range because of the optimized oil pressure characteristic. We mainly adopted this to the rear damper that can have a better driving experience.
New Design Needle
Newly designed needle has been used to revise the very low speed and middle and high speed dampening which is key to a comfort ride.
Reduction of Unsprung Weight
In order to reduce unsprung weight, bracket, ride height adjusters and lock nuts are made from aluminium. (Not for all vehicles)
30 Step Damping Force Adjustment
30 levels of dampening adjustment allow fine tune adjustment for street or circuit.
