HKS has launched HIPERMAX Touring height-adjustable lowering springs for the FL5 Civic Type R. The article highlights the height-adjustment function at both the front and rear, as well as the pillow-ball upper arm used at the front.
The spring rates are 5.2 kg/mm at the front and 5.3 kg/mm at the rear. The product uses springs in the factory configuration for combination with the factory shock absorbers.
A key component is the front pillow-ball upper arm. Rather than using a threaded structure, the product employs a system that provides three-stage height adjustment with two spacers. This provides both sufficient suspension travel and customization flexibility.
The camber angle can also be adjusted, and the design allows the ride height to be adjusted at both the front and rear. The price is ¥139,700 including tax.
