HKS Hiper-D Coilovers

[Cerikbok]

Anyone had any experience with these? How are they as compared to Tein Super Street, found a beautiful new set of these in the states for a bargain and thinking very hard about snatching them up!

Do you have a photo or part number? HKS only do the Hypermax III suspension for the Supra now.

Here is a picture, contacted him about the part number. He listed in his ad they were discontinued. They look so good!

They are the Hypermax II's, although they did a drift version I think which may account for the 'D' in name you gave. The Drift version are sprung and damped differently, I think they are stiffer than the standard ones.

 

The standard Hypermax II's are fairly stiffly sprung, they are a harder ride compared to the Tein Super Streets. I use to run these on my own car, good on decent A roads, but can get very choppy on poor B roads.

Thanks for the insight buddy, will keep that in mind! Looking up the Hypermax II's you noted i accidentally came across a full explanation of the D version.

For anyone interested. Talks about the Silvias but applies across the board I am sure. Guess I won't have a use for something like this unless I build a drift kit haha
