Product Description

The Tein VSH48-CUSA1-C Flex Z is a coilover kit built exclusively for the 1997-2001 Acura Integra Type-R (DC2). Engineered specifically for the ITR's rear eye-style lower mount, higher-spring-rate factory suspension, and B18C5 engine weight distribution, this kit pairs a 560 lbs/in front and 392 lbs/in rear spring rate with 16-way damping adjustment and full-length ride height adjustability - delivering a sharper, more planted stance without sacrificing the Type-R's legendary agility.

Built in Yokohama, Japan with twin-tube construction and Tein's sealed damper structure, the Flex Z includes front camber-adjustable pillowball upper mounts and rear pillowball upper mounts for precise alignment correction at lowered heights. This kit will NOT fit standard Integra GS/GS-R/LS/RS models, which use a fork-style rear lower mount - confirm the rear lower mount type before ordering. Reuse the OE brake line bracket from the factory front shock absorber during installation. Professional installation and alignment are recommended after fitment.
