Series Concept: Designed and tuned for street application / daily driving.
With the Hipermax III suspension series, the driver gains increased wheel control with improved performance of all vehicle dynamics and increased driver command in all conditions. Hipermax III combines track-quality control with excellent ride and handling characteristics at real-world street speeds. HKS' all-new Hiper Linear Piston Fluid Channel System damping system creates a positive relationship between piston speed and damping force, making it possible to produce a suspension that provides track-level control and feedback with exceptional ride quality at the same time.
In addition, the Hipermax III is shock-body adjustable (most applications) to allow vehicle height adjustment without affecting spring rate and piston stroke. With the Hipermax III%u2019s range of adjustability, precise corner balancing can be achieved. Chrome-plated cylinder shafts provide excellent durability and newly-design rubber upper mounts reduce harshness. (For most applications, optional spherical bearing mounts are also available for enhanced steering feedback.)
Key Features:
* Hiper Linear Piston: Linear progression piston adjusts oil passages for precise stroke management resulting in smoother valve movements. As piston speed increases, dampening rate linearly increases.
* Strengthened rubber upper mounts %u2013 enhanced durability
* Monotube design
* Shock-body length adjustable (most applications)
* 65mm diameter springs %u2013 Cold wound and manufactured in-house at HKS to ensure quality and consistency
* Stainless lock nut & ride height adjuster %u2013 feature anti-rust & corrosion characteristics for enhanced durability.
* 30-way adjustable dampening
* Hard chrome-plated cylinder shaft
* Non-electrolysis Nickel plated shock bodies provide durability in severe weather conditions.
* Pillowball upper mounts optional on certain applications
* Dustboots standard
* 1 year limited warranty
TEAS stands for 'Tanabe Electric Active Suspension and is the counterpart of the new Sustec Pro FIVE & Sustec Pro SEVEN suspension. This compact unit is the brain behind the highly sophisticated new Tanabe suspensions. TEAS is a fully programmable dampener controller that allows for dampening force to be automatically adjusted while driving. TEAS accomplishes this by connecting and using the signal from the vehicles Speed Sensor.
Remote dampening control from within the vehicle is not a new concept by any means. In fact, many Japanese vehicles from the 1980's including the FC3S RX-7 and MA70 Supra had buttons to change dampening ; Unlike other controllers that are simply an update of this older technology, TEAS is a much larger step towards highly digital advanced suspension control and tuning through its speed sensing
TEAS active dampening control is uniquely possible due to the use of the specialized valving of the SEVEN, in conjunction with TEAS; slim, high speed actuators. These actuators change dampener settings in 1/100ths of a second, which is necessary as TEAS can continuously change settings at different speeds.

EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller) makes it possible for the driver to control the damping force by controlling a motor installed in the shock absorber while being seated in the drivers seat.
Here is a great entry level tuned TEIN coil-over suspension kit Type Basic - that is a big step above the Sleeve Type Coilover kits with performance struts or shocks. These kits have all the high quality and high performance as all the high end Adjustable Suspension Kits, but are reasonably priced. All kits are ride height adjustable. The damping force (compression & rebound) is non-adjustable. Twin tube design allows the kit to be overhauled.
TEIN Type FLEX damper kit was designed to provide driving comfort and sports performance with its full-length adjustment system. We have incorporated separate height and preload adjustments, which allows you to have various set-ups to meet different road conditions. The FLEX Damper kit includes pillow ball upper mounts and is compatible with the EDFC, for maximum performance for the streets.
