HKS Presents Carbon-Fibre Aero Kit for Suzuki Swift Sport

Suzuki’s latest generation Swift is one of our favourite mini cars; it’s reliable and well built, it’s nice on the road and it looks nearly as good as a MINI (….) without costing an arm and a leg. The top-of-the-line Sport version with its perky 125 Hp 1.6-liter is even better adding a dose of sportiness to the mixture. While we wouldn’t have minded a few more horses under the hood, HKS’ offering for the Swift Sport which was redesigned for the Japanese market last year (see here), concentrates on appearance and handling.
The Japanese tuner’s aero kit includes mirror caps, front and rear lip, roof spoiler, hood with an aero scoop and a rear door spoiler all of which are made out of carbon-fibre. The Swift’s exterior looks are complemented by a set of 18-inch Advan RC-III alloys wrapped in Yokohama tires (215/35 R18). Additionally, HKS offers buyers the option of suspension, brake and chassis upgrades. –More pics after the jump

HKS Readying 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X Sport Pack

Here we go boys, let the tuning games begin! Shortly after the Japanese market debut of the all-new Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X (click here), HKS revealed a teaser shot of the high-performance sedan featuring prototype sport parts. From what we were able to make from the translated release, the Japanese tuner will focus on two main areas: extra power and increased grip thanks to new suspension parts, lower ride height and different tire/alloy wheel combinations. By the way, doesn’t the white HKS EVO X RS with those alloy wheels looks outright sick?Source URL: http://sparesomeribs.blogspot.com/search/label/HKS
