Product Description

HKS HIPERMAX Touring for 2023+ Honda Civic Type R FL5

The HKS HIPERMAX Touring for the FL5 Honda Civic Type R is designed for owners who want a lower, more aggressive stance and additional suspension adjustability without giving up the factory electronically controlled dampers.

Unlike a conventional full coilover system, the HIPERMAX Touring retains the original Honda shock absorbers and factory adaptive suspension mode functionality. HKS pairs the OEM dampers with specially developed springs, a camber-adjustable front pillow-ball upper mount, front ride-height spacers, and threaded rear height adjusters.

The result is a suspension package that adds ride-height and front camber adjustment while preserving the factory adaptive damper system that makes the FL5 Civic Type R so versatile on the street.

Key Features

  • Retains the factory FL5 electronically controlled adaptive shock absorbers
  • Factory suspension mode switching remains functional
  • Height adjustable at both the front and rear
  • Three front ride-height positions using HKS spacer system
  • Threaded rear ride-height adjustment
  • Camber-adjustable front pillow-ball upper mounts
  • Improved steering response compared with the factory upper mount
  • Additional camber adjustment provides greater flexibility when fitting wider wheels and tires
  • Moderate spring rates developed to work with the OEM adaptive dampers
  • Uses the factory shock absorbers rather than replacing them with conventional coilovers

Adjustable Ride Height

HKS developed a unique height-adjustment system for the front of the FL5. Instead of using a conventional threaded front height adjuster, the kit uses two supplied spacers to provide three predetermined ride-height settings while maintaining sufficient suspension travel.

Higher Setting -13 mm vs. stock
HKS Test / Standard Setting -19 mm vs. stock
Lower Setting -25 mm vs. stock

The rear suspension uses a threaded ride-height adjuster, allowing the rear height to be set within the HKS specified adjustment range.

Camber-Adjustable Front Pillow-Ball Mounts

One of the major upgrades included with the FL5 HIPERMAX Touring kit is the HKS front pillow-ball upper mount.

The pillow-ball design provides a more direct steering response while also allowing front camber adjustment. This gives FL5 owners additional flexibility when choosing wheel width, tire size, offset and alignment settings, particularly on cars running wider-than-stock wheel and tire combinations.

Designed Around the Factory Adaptive Dampers

The FL5 Civic Type R comes equipped with electronically controlled dampers from the factory. Rather than removing that system, HKS designed the HIPERMAX Touring specifically around it.

During development, HKS avoided dramatically increasing the spring rates. The suspension was instead tuned to work with the factory dampers and factory bump stops to maintain ride quality while reducing excessive body movement.

This makes HIPERMAX Touring an especially attractive option for owners who want a lower stance and additional suspension tuning capability but still want to retain the Comfort, Sport and +R adaptive suspension behavior of the factory car.
