Honda Civic Type R FN2 Sports Suspension kit from MUGEN

Japanese Honda tuning house MUGEN is pleased to unveil a new sports suspension kit for the Honda Civic Type R FN2, as used on the Civic Type R MUGEN.Featuring specially developed fixed rate dampers and lowering springs, MUGEN’s engineers focussed attention on improving the overall handling performance of the European model Civic Type R, particularly low and medium speed turn in ability.

To achieve this, MUGEN’s engineers have produced high quality lowering springs, which reduce the ride height by 10mm at the front of the car and 5mm at the rear. In conjunction with the specially valved dampers, the MUGEN sports suspension kit subtly, yet effectively enhances the dynamic qualities of the FN2 Honda Civic Type R, without sacrificing ride quality.

 

Carrying part number 50000-XLR-K0S0, the MUGEN Honda Civic Type R FN2 Sports Suspension kit is available now from principal MUGEN stockist Torque Developments International Plc, costing £1898.07 including VAT @ 17.5%.

Considering the long-standing and close motorsport relationship between HONDA and MUGEN that has encompassed most categories from one-make series’ to F1, it’s not surprising that much of that cutting-edge competition knowledge and experience has led to a wide range of premium products available to HONDA enthusiasts worldwide.

During the winter of 2007 M-TEC Company Limited of Japan announced a new initiative – the formation of MUGEN Euro Company Limited in the UK and the establishment of a MUGEN-POWER racing and high performance engine facility in Northampton in the UK’s ‘Motorsports Valley’ by July of that year.

After a little more than four years from the ground-up start, MUGEN EURO has supplied approaching 400 competition engines. In addition, we have:
