Message Ride quality is VERY important to me. I've been in Z32's with JIC FLA2's and Apex N'1s. I thought the ride was a little harsh, especially over small rode imperfections and reflectors. The HKS Hipermax II's are very expensive, but after installing them in my car and driving around, I'll say they are worth the money.

Currently, I have the front 3 clicks stiff and the rear in the middle (factory settings)and the ride is very comfortable... compression is firm with strong rebound dampening to remove the pogo effect. BTW, the HKS units are 30 way adjustable. A much better ride and better handling than my old Eibach/Tokico combination.

If you're going to street the car, be careful on how stiff you go. Stiff is only good on a smooth track, on the street it will cause you to lose traction.

Lastly, take tires into consideration. Sidewall stiffness varies greatly from brand to brand...

Regards,
