Point

・MAX IV production concept was aimed at "Comfort & Fun of steering". In normal driving, such as streets and highways has the exquisite taste of fine and comfortable ride with HKS large bore single-cylinder piston. The stock's a little stiffness is reduced. And for a big bump MAX IV gives smooth and mild response. Also the steering can be set in detail for your needs by setting up the damping.
・MAX IV is all length adjustable type, so that the height can be set to your needs and wants for your style.
・The standard dial for both front and back is the dial 15, and for smoother ride, set dial at 20 to 30. For European style suspension, set it at dial 3 to 5. The new design will not be stiff even under 10 steps setting.
・HKS has developed the MAX IV according to thorough data analysis of many cars in the market and tested them. We didn't only rate damping but also analyzed balance and stroke, which made this product more safe and fun to drive.
・We also redesigned the inner parts and developed new parts for MAX IV. MAX IV has new design of needle which gives more stable damping and steering characteristic at a low to mid speed range. We also revised dial adjustment by oil path and this new design makes even under 10 step dial, it will not be stiff.
・Please be careful with the later model setting since it has a different bumper design, the height of the fog lamp is different,
* We have confirmed MAX IV with HKS GT Supercharger Kit. We have checked with powered up cars, too, and this new design makes even under 10 step dial, it will not be stiff.
*5 get rid of the helper S/P
● Process for installation
・Required to make an hole for rear damping adjustment cable(rear interior)
・When the spring interferes, you might need to cut the rear inner fender.
