stance? product or your overall look? hehehe
yes, get hks over stance. hks will give you a nice stance, LOL
lowest hks can go? iirc, hks LS/LS+ go lower than RS. search HKS and you'll find some pics. i know, for sure, neo300's got some pics in here along w/mine

Hey thanks a lot 4ntvings!!!

so whats the main differences between the LS+ and RS.
Is the LS more of a touring coilover?? and RS more aggressive and stiffer?
but the spring rates for the RS is F-9kg R-8kg so it seems softer than Tein, JIC and Insurance Group coilovers (other coilovers im looking at).

iirc, LS+ go lower. i'm not 100% sure, maybe LS+ is for Luxury and RS is for Race? just a wild guess, so dont quote me on it.

RS's you adjust the ride height with the collars under the spring. The LS+'s adjust the ride height by twisting the lower part of the shock body.

Stance coilovers are beyond amazing and great for Super Slammed applications, i would much rather own stance over tein and possibly over hks, the only other coilover i think is in its class is jic. You should check out how well built the stance coilover apps are. Its pretty convincing evidence and the price is great.

Picked up a brand new set of HKS Hypermax LS+ about year ago in Japan and am finally getting around to having them installed. I was looking at the Tein CS and speaking to the Japnese guy there he pointed me to the HKS hypermax LS+ and said bottom line this is what you want for your GS! Will post pics of the install.

Have HKS released Hypermax III for OUR cars? I thought we're only going to have the old ones.... (I think HKS doesn't even list RS for 2GS though..... ah well, I have them on my car, what do I care anyways. )

I personally am planning on getting the LS+, pillow ball mounts, no matter how many people say they don't transmit energy into the cabin, I still can't believe that.


There is

Hipermax III CLX- MSRP $2250

Thanks, I thought they looked familiar, a friend of mine has those on his G35. They look pretty good on the Lex!
