Hardrace chassis reinforcement guide for Honda Civic 11th Gen

Hardrace chassis reinforcement guide for Honda Civic 11th Gen

CIVIC FL5 TYPE R is considered to be less aggressive but more smooth and refined in exterior design. The K20C1 engine is carried over from its predecessor, but received some incremental changes such as new turbocharger, revised exhaust, cooling and gearbox to achieve the extra performance. Now this most powerful ever Vtec turbo is able to deliver 330ps of power (315ps for US-spec model) and 42.8kgm of torque at maximum. The adaptive suspension is featured in the new FL5 as well, allowing a compliant ride during normal driving and more firm, precise cornering at the track or fast driving situations. Chassis rigidity is improved to achieve better handling performance, too.

We have already launched a series of suspension and chassis for CIVIC FL5 TYPE R now to further improve its performance and driving pleasure. Also there are more upgrades kits still in development, so be sure to stay tuned.
