HKS Performance FAQ
What is the difference between HKS Hi-Power and Super Turbo exhausts?
The Hi-Power series focuses on a sporty, aggressive exhaust note and maximum flow for higher-RPM performance. The Super Turbo range is engineered for high-horsepower street cars, utilising a larger piping diameter and advanced internal silencer designs to provide a deep, mature tone with zero highway drone.
Are HKS Hypermax coilovers too stiff for the street?
The latest Hypermax S series has been specifically re-tuned for improved comfort on the street. By utilising a new "Dual PVS" valve system, the coilovers provide excellent compliance over bumps while remaining incredibly sharp and composed during spirited driving or track days.
How quickly can you source HKS parts in Australia?
We utilise a robust international and local supply network to provide the fastest possible turnaround for authentic JDM parts. Most HKS exhausts, coilovers, and blow-off valves for popular performance platforms are sourced and despatched within a short timeframe for delivery nationwide.
