Even within the adjustable range, car body, arm etc. may contact. In such case, it will be hard to drive.
Damper oil leakage or any other problems caused by low ride height setting from the factory setting will void the warranty of the product.)

Point

・If the front case length shortens below the lower limit value, it is likely to interfere with the stabilizer link in a full stroke. Also depend on the size of the tire, it could interfere with fender even within the limits.
・Matches with both AP1 and AP2.
・MAX IV will provide both sportiness and comfort.
・We have set it adhesive and easy to handle setting by adjusting adequate damping amd provide comfortable drive without rising rate extremely.
・This suspension is fun to drive. Put the Neova class tire and go for a race!
・About 20th step for a everyday drive and about 10th step for winding road drive.
