anyone else waiting 4 months for their coilovers like me. i ordered beggining of may. and they say the eta is mid august. when i bought them they said it was 4 to 6 week wait. just wondering why its taking so long.

 

who did you order them from?

 

have you called the company and asked them? i doubt anyone on here can give a reason as to why its takeing so long

 

i ordered from invision perfromance.

 

What exact model did you order? Not all HKS coilovers offered for sale are imported by HKS USA. A JDM only setup would take a long time to get.

Hypermax II and LS+ 350Z are both JDM only.

Note sure if both LS model's are still imported or not (350Z and G35 version).

You might want to visit the HKS site in Japan to see if what you bought is still listed on that site (though the RS is not shown on the site, it is part of the U.S. lineup).

 

HKS Hipermax RS Coilovers 03-04 Infiniti G35 Coupe

will these work for the 07 g35 coupe.

 

The RS is very much still imported, IMO contact HKS directly and ask them what they can tell you reguarding them shipping to the dealer, like any outstanding p.o's for RS coilovers to the reseller that have yet to ship? If they say they have the RS on hand in the U.S., call your seller on the spot with that info.

Yes, they will work on a 07 (same as they will work on a 03-06 car).

 

thanks for the great info gsedan35.

 

i also ordered my hks rs coilovers in may and i am still waiting. they were supposed to be here in mid june and and now its august. i went through this same thing with my wheels. very frustrating but i guess thats the way it goes. maybe i should of just got springs.

 

thats what im thinking i dont want to cancle the order cause ive already waited this long. who did you order from. i talked to eddie from thmotorsports and he said he can get them flown over from japan. his price is pretty good too. im concidering canceling my order and ordering from thmotorsports.

 

i ordered mine from intensemotorsports, i am actually thinking of canceling my order too and just getting some springs. i am tired of always waiting on parts, i mean its not like we are ordering custom made one off parts.

 

youre lucky you ordered from intense. they are an authorized dealer. so that means they are gettin their stuff first. i called hks and thats what they told me. i talked to invision and they said they have a set for me. i think they ordered from a authorized dealer. hks gave me a eta of mid august.

 

Thing is, I guarantee that you will not come remotely close to the same ride and drive experience with just springs. Only thing I'll throw out their is converting to a different coilover system in the same name brand type class, Cusco Zero2 comes to mind.

 

what about jic or kw

 

Well, their's no other way to say this other then, I would not install Jic coilovers even if they were given to me for free.

The thing about the Kw's is they use progressive rear springs that won't be easy to swap out for linear because of the inside diameter of the spring seats that have the height adjustment system. As it stand's now the rear springs have a wide rate spread between inital and final which is one of the reason's I won't tough the product. Variant 1's don't have adjustable dampning. Varient 2 add's rebound adjustablity only. Varient 3 add's seperate compression and rebound adjustablity.

Against either product I would rather have Cusco Zero2 or Tein Mono Flex, though I would not run the latter's 14Kg rear spring rates, I would step down to 12Kg.
