Whats new for 2011 at Parts Shop MAX USA
BIG NEWS! The pro coilovers are finished and ready to ship. Models are: S13 10/8 KG S14 10/8 KG S15 10/8 KG Z33 12/8 KG BK (genesis coupe) 8/6 KG We will get a VERY limited number of these because this is the first run. The Price is $1500/set and we will be pre-selling the shipment while its on the way. We will have them in our San Diego warehouse in 4 weeks. MAX PRO coilovers have many of the best things you have come to expect from our competition coilovers like front and rear pillowball spring perches, light weight mounting brackets and full tap super low independent ride height adjustability. They also have high quality components and a robust damper but unlike the comp. coilover which is a pretty stiff ride that compliments lower power cars, the damping on the PRO coilover has been fine tuned for a softer range by Eisuke Kawamori of Parts Shop MAX Japan to give high grip that high power cars require. The softer damper with more adjustability also compliments the Swift Springs which feel softer than our standard springs because the rate is more linear. The swift springs make this pro coilover even lighter than the comp coilovers. Alternatively this pro coilover feels very comfortable on the street and has increased stroke. I'll post dynos when they become available, but for now I just wanted to give advanced notice to those who have been waiting a long time for a first glimpse. Your requests on our wish list forum were taken into account here. These have been development for over a year after and prototypes have seen action throughout the 2010 Formula D season on Tommy Roberts and Matt Powers car (before Matt finally got picked up by major FD sponsor KW). So far the 2011 season will see privateer Ryan Kado, (top drift, thunder drift Champion & FD rookie) running these on his 350Z. I have personally put more than 10,000 daily driven miles into testing these on the streets in my genesis. With the success of our exsisting coilovers over the last 4 years, we were in no hurry to release a new coilover line until it has met our expectations and withstood more abuse than you will give them through competition and crashes. They had to be dead sexy too - so we came up with a new look that has never been seen before by replacing orange and gold with real copper and mirror gold so we cant be mistaken for other products out there who use similar colors. Look for this color scheme in upcoming 2011 products designed to compliment the PRO coilovers. We hope you enjoy what we have worked so hard to create for you. Sincerely, the entire team at Parts Shop MAX Japan and USA Unique Features: ~ Swift Springs with mirror gold finish (A Parts Shop MAX exclusive) ~ New diameter to accomodate Swift Springs ~ CNC aluminum components double coated with pure copper, sealed with clear urethane ~ Pillowball uppers front and rear (teflon lined maintenance free) ~ Pillowball lower mounts (except Z33) ~ Fine damper threads to resist loosening ~ Rebound Infinitely adjustable with 12 click tactile feedback knob. ~ Damping has more adjustability all on the soft end of the range to compliment the swift springs and big traction on high power cars. ~ Camber AND CASTER adjustable front upper mount ~ 2 Degrees of negative camber built into lower mount ~ Lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects with 4 year free replacement in case of moving parts failure, contact us for more details UPDATE 2/28/11 ~ S13 Pro version came in today.

So, these will be available still after the first run is out? Will the price change, or be the same after this initial run? Is that 1500 shipped in the U.S.?

The only americans who have used the prototypes are me, tommy and matt.
So we may have to wait for some early adopters for an (unbiased) review, however if you like our competition coilovers quality and longevity and you fit into the higher power or daily driver catergories you will appreciate these, its certainly worth the price difference with all of the additional features. Quote:
We have a track record of keeping the prices the same despite dramatic currency fluctuation. Price is without shipping. we have started developing into the luxury brands they will be labeled MAX VIP and they will have the same appearance as MAX PRO but the spring will be the standard type, not Swift. the first offering is the Y33 since the owners have been modding for S13 coilovers for a while now this will be followed by two generations of GS and I would be willing to do a measuring session on the IS Quote:
Pro dampers are assembled in taiwan like our competiton model Quote:
if the interest is there, I have no problem carrying it Quote:
For S chassis and genesis both front and rear lowers are aluminum For Z33 the front lower is steel, rear lower is aluminum. Some cars like Y33 and future applications like AE86 where the lower mount welds to the steering knuckle, they will be steel but since we copper plate both steel and aluminum they will have the same appearance. Thank you everyone for all of the awesome comments, thats what we find rewarding about making original parts!
