Apexi N1 Damper ExV (Expert Type V) is the newest edition to our high performance street line of coilover suspension. The Expert Type V (ExV) is a full coilover suspension featuring a threaded base for precise ride height adjustment without compromising shock or spring travel. We have taken our street suspension to the next level for 2005 by including high performance upper mounts and 32 way ride quality adjustment for street cars that are used at the track as well. The spring rates and internal valving of the ExV has been completely refined for excellent ride quality and sports driving. The ExV was designed to cater exclusively to US market vehicles. With this in mind, internal components have been specifically engineered to withstand harsher road conditions and increased wear caused by everyday street driving. The Expert Type V was developed based upon user requests for a high performance damper that does not carry a typical racing suspension price tag. This system stands as our commitment in providing our customers with the ultimate in quality and affordability.
The N1 Evolution is the newest generation of our track engineered flag ship N1 suspension. All N1 dampers feature large piston, monotube design using a threaded base for height adjustments without compromising shock or spring travel. Every year, we gather incredible amounts of suspension data from our direct involvement in many different racing series. This specialized data goes directly into our sports parts development to provide the customer with the same cutting edge suspension technology we use on all of our race vehicles.
The STREET version of the N1 Evolution focuses on the hardcore enthusiast that craves for the curves of the race track, but still requires a comfortable, streetable ride for the drive home. Internal valving settings have been extensively researched and tested to achieve the perfect balance between street and track. The N1 Evolution STREET is one of the most versatile coilovers systems we have produced to date. All components are made using the highest quality standards for maximum durability on all kinds of road conditions. It has a piston diameter of 46mm.

*New GReddy Type S Coil Over System, performance dampers!
Four Corner, Full Length Adjustable Ride Height
With an adjustable threaded base and spring perch, height adjustments can be make without sacrificing spring preload or shock stroke. Even with a lower ride height, by maintaining stroke, bottoming out can be prevented, thus maintaining traction even when hitting a dip while cornering. In addition, by having both adjustments for the front and rear, it is possible to adjust ride height in millimeter increments if desired
Adjustable Spherical Bearing Upper Mounts
Standard equipment on vehicles equipped with front struts are adjustable pherical bearing (pillowball) upper mounts. The thick 10mm aluminum upper plates are precisely marked by secure and accurate camber adjustments. While the use of replaceable spherical bearings add extended life and cost effectiveness to the system.
32 Way Adjustable Dampering
By using a special 32 way valve needle compression and rebound dampening can be simultaneously adjusted to suit both street and track use. The precise changes allow for sporty handling while still maintaining a comfortable ride.
For non-strut type applications, a thick 33mm strengthened rubber bushings on sturdy 10mm billet aluminum upper mount and lightweight billet aluminum brackets are used. This offers both exceptional noise reduction and very controllable handling profile.
Lightweight High-grade Coil Springs
All systems employ a special high strength steel (SAE9254) in its coil spring. This allows the springs to have the optimum balance of precise stroke, durability and lightweight. Rear springs are designed with 250mm (unless listed otherwise) variable springs to maximize the rebound stroke. This inhibits loosing traction when lifting while cornering. It also contributes to stable traction in wet or dry
Extended Adjustment Cable
For applications with the rear shocks mounted beneath a rear deck lid (speaker board), an extended adjustment cable is included. This allows for easy dampening adjustments without having to remove components. All that is necessary, is creating a small 6.5mm hole for the tool.

HKS Hipermax Damper II coilover kits provide the ultimate in suspension tuning with 30-way dampening, threaded dual-chambered shock assemblies and perches for height adjustment, upper Pillowball mounts for improved steering response, and tempered springs.
The all-new Hipermax Racing Sport (RS) coilover suspension kits are the first Hipermax line to be engineered as a truly global suspension system. HKS suspension engineers spent over a year developing the Hipermax RS, testing on various race tracks throughout the world, auto cross events and street testing in both Japan and the United States.
The result of all this testing and development is a coilover suspension system that has been precisely valved to dramatically improve handling at a competitive track level, yet still be comfortable even on the harsh road conditions in the United States. HKS was able to achieve this versatility by using an F1 inspired single tube structure coupled with an oversized piston and dual oil and gas chambers. A shortened cylinder body allows suspension travel to be maintained when the car is lowered. The Hipermax RS also features HKS trademark 30-way dampening and rebound adjustability that is adjusted simultaneously for easy tuning. The included anodized aluminum upper pillowball mounts improve steering response, traction and offer a more direct feel to the driving surface. On certain applications camber can be adjusted on the upper pillowball mounts. All HKS Hipermax RS coilover suspension kits are built in-house at HKS Headquarters in Japan.
Stage 4 Coil Over Suspension H&R is the originator of the true coil over just a threaded tube and some sort of spring, but an actual threaded strut and shock body with a specifically designed spring. H&R coil overs are engineered for street and occasional track use, H&R Coil-Overs feature a fully-threaded shock body (not an imitation sleeve-over) that allows you to precisely dial in height adjustment to achieve optimum weight transfer, or simply get the aggressive look you've been looking for. Featuring H&R's exclusive dynamic damper technology, each shock is engineered to work in harmony with a progressive-rate spring, together creating a finely-tuned suspension system.track wh
RSS Club Sport Coil Overs, are designed for the committed motorsport enthusiast who is willing to relinquish some ride comfort in return for ultimate handling performance. The firmest coil-over in the H&R street line, the RSS is the choice for weekend track and club sport events.
Whether your vehicle is set up for everyday street driving, weekend racing at the track, or strictly for show, the Skunk2 Racing adjustable coilover kit is your solution. Each kit comes complete with hard-anodized CNC-machined threaded aluminum sleeves, CNC-wound SAE 9254 racing springs, and mounting hardware that allows up to a 3-inch drop (sometimes more). Our dual-locking perch design has proven to be the most reliable method for securing the spring perches. The key to the coilovers performance and unsurpassed ride quality is the advanced spring design technology that allows the use of higher spring rates with minimal compromise to ride quality.

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.
