The package prioritizes response and reliability while delivering serious performance headroom.

Chassis & Brakes

SPL and GKTech components pair with MCS coilovers to sharpen the R32’s dynamics, while StopTech big brakes at all four corners deliver the stopping power to match the engine’s output. The ATTESA E‑TS all‑wheel‑drive system puts power down effectively on road or track.
