I would highly recommend do-luck sways, my bodyroll has been minimized and they are adjustable, i dont like Hipermax II for drifting, spring rates are soft (f)12kg and (r)6kg. I am switching to KeiOffice (f)20kg and (r)16kg or if i can find a Hipermax D's but with custom rates, its a long @ss wait.

 

Aren't the Hipermax adjustable enough to get as close to the Kei Office's?

 

No,
Hipermax II ---(f)12kg (r) 6kg or (f)14kg (r) 8kg
KeiOffice-------(f)20kg (r) 16kg
Hipermax D---you can custom order any spring rates you want.

 

can't you order a set of tein basics with a s/r of 14/10 er something...

 

got a pic of ur car with the 17x9 and 17x10 setup by any chance? i want to see how the 17s look on the sc

 

I think you can get zeal coilovers with similar spring rates to the kei office ones, check the applications for both the supra and the sc300, i forgot which are more stiff. www.endlessusa.com

 

actually i have a topic that is related to suspension but not coilovers.. what is a better investment to get.. sways or strut bar first?

i should be getting my zeals in pretty soon.. hopefully have pix by this weekend..

 

sways are better. what application did you get for your zeals?

 

Here is a pic of my Zeals next to the HKS. Look at ths size of the bushing compared to the HipermaxII.

which set of zeals did you get?

 

Those Hipermax II's look yum. Gadget, I know you've got a set on one of your SC's, how do you find them for normal driving? Too hard? Too soft?

 

well i got it from japan and being shipped as we speak..

from the pictures it's either the Function B6's or S6's

 

nice set of zeals man! which one did you get.. from the looks of it, it either looks like got the b6 or s6 right?

also, from the looks of it.. you seem to have the "Rigid Plates" on as well. the set that i'm getting is going to have the Rigid plates with the bushings. have you heard which mounts are better, the RIGID or PILLOW BALL?

 

B6 is correct

Soarer_25GTT .......The Hipermax II's ride great for normal driving. I had mine at the softest setting and it was very near stock as compared to riding in my 2kSC.
I have the Zeals on the same car on the first setting and it feels the same as the stock 2k.


sc.Fred.....I dont know which one is better the RIGID or PILLOW BALL mounts. If you need more adjustibility you might want the pillow ball. My HKS were ridgid also and were fine for me.

I think pillowball mounts on our cars would be worthless (unless they affect ride comfort) because we can't adjust the camber through them.
