Hipermax S
- Without compromising the OEM ride quality, we have improved the ride comfort required for everyday use and sports performance such as roll rigidity in a well-balanced way.
- The upper mount shape has been changed in the Gen2. A reinforced rubber mount has been adopted for the HKS original dedicated upper plate. Aiming for a damping characteristic that is smooth and supple while also having a stiff feel, stability and controllability at the limit have also been significantly improved.
- Rather than using the same settings as the previous model, we have performed special tuning to match the dynamic characteristics in the Gen2.
- We also tested the newly added AT vehicle. Concluding, it provides the best ride comfort for both MT and AT vehicles.
