HKS HIPERMAX S COILOVERS MAZDA MX5 NCEC 2005-2015 FULL KIT

After 9 years from the launch of MAXIV GT, new HIPERMAX S series was born for the superior “Driving Comfort" with advanced features in damping force, durability and appearance.

Application

Specification

Ride Heightmm

*1. Height from road surface to fender arch.
*2. Height at factory is the data tested at HKS with the setting of Full Kit. (HKS' recommended setting.)
*3. Adjustable range (However, the lowest value may not be road legal.
Even within the adjustable range, car body, arm etc. may contact. In such case, it will be hard to drive.
Damper oil leakage or any other problems caused by low ride height setting from the factory setting will void the warranty of the product.)
*4. Drivable range that there is no contact of car body or arms etc. (However, change of tire/wheel size may cause a problem.)
Caution). Actual data depends on each vehicle.

Single Tube Damper Design

The new HIPERMAX S series continues to employ the single-tube structure.
The advantage of this structure is to be able to provide the gas and oil chamber separately, and then it allows to use of a large diameter piston. As a result, a quality and stable damping force is gained.

Inverted Shock Absorber (Strut)

・Large lateral forces are spread over a larger area increasing rigidity under high loads or with larger wheels.
・Damper is attached to body side reducing un-sprung weight for improved handling.

Dual PVS

The Pre-load Valve System, introduced in the previous MAX IV GT 20 Spec,S-Style L,S-Style C, created a remarkable difference to handling performance. This has been further refined to introduce “Dual PVS”.
High speed damping is reduced while keeping unnecessary movement to a minimum.

WR Needle： Wide range damping force adjustment mechanism

The improved shape of the needle expands the oil relief channel. Each step of the 30 step adjustment is now more prominent. Having softer adjustment options gives more options for street driving.

ADVANCED BUMP RUBBER（Evolution of Bump stop rubber)

For HIPERMAX S, a further improved “ADVANCED BUMP RUBBER” was developed which pursues further softness and also shorter variations deliver a wide range of options for a variety of cars delivers a natural and smooth experience.

PNE Coating

HKS previously introduced SNOW EDITION versions to combat corrosion head on. The result of this development was PNE coating delivering 5x better durability compared to standard galvanizing.

Strengthened Rubber Upper Mount

Strengthened rubber upper mount is able to absorb small body vibrations whilst tightening up the mount over stock. Revised cross sectional design and material composition balance comfort and performance.

HIPERMAX S Core Technology

Dual PVS

The Pre-load Valve System, introduced in the previous MAX IV GT 20 Spec, created a remarkable difference to handling performance. This has been further refined to introduce "Dual PVS".
High speed damping is reduced while keeping unnecessary movement to a minimum.

• Compared to without PVS, shaft extension is more responsive improving tire contact with the ground.
• Under fast compression, damping force rises quickly to absorb the impact energy from bumps.
• Initial damping is effective under rebound to reduce bouncing and fast stabilization.

ADVANCED BUMP RUBBER (Evolution of Bump stop rubber)

HKS studied the use of bump stop rubber during the development of HIPERMAX MAXIV GT Spec-A.
Research on how to make effective use of the bump stop rubber and created a new concept which is incorporated as part of the suspension setup.
Spec-A bump stop rubbers are longer and softer than conventional items. They make contact earlier in the stroke and gradually increase load. This creates a smooth action which prevents sudden changes in movement and shock.
For HIPERMAX S, a further improved “ADVANCED BUMP RUBBER” was developed which pursues further softness and also shorter variations deliver a wide range of options for a variety of cars delivers a natural and smooth experience.
