The HKS Carbon Brace (83001-AH001) is a premium front strut tower brace engineered for the 2023+ Honda Civic Type R (FL5) and Acura Integra Type S (DE5), featuring a vibration-dampening carbon fiber shaft crafted in collaboration with Graphite Design.
Key Features & Benefits
- Graphite Design Carbon Shaft: Delivers 150% more torsional rigidity than factory components while actively absorbing road harshness and high-frequency vibrations rather than transmitting them like rigid metal bars.
- CNC-Machined Aluminum Brackets: Uses lightweight, hollowed billet end plates for reduced mass (total weight approx. 1.5 kg) and a motorsport aesthetic.
- Handling Enhancement: Sharpens steering response, improves limit-behavior predictability, and boosts cornering stability without compromising ride quality during daily driving.
- Direct Bolt-On: Installs cleanly onto the FL5 platform with no interior modifications required (factory brace bar removal is necessary)
