2016-2021 Honda Civic Type R Pro-ST Coilovers by Skunk2 Racing
Skunk2's Pro-ST coilover kit: engineered for racing specifications and tested and proven over decades by winning race teams. Integrating top-tier technology into an affordable street-spec coilover, our system is the perfect, budget-friendly solution for daily-driven performance vehicles.
Built with the daily-driven sports car in mind, our Pro-ST shock absorbers are shorter than factory units, lowering the ride height by approximately 3 inches while maintaining full shock travel. Combined with 12-way damping adjustment and stiffer springs, this allows you to dial in the perfect settings for your driving environment.
The large 52mm seamless carbon steel monotube shock body increases strength and provides space for a larger hydraulic piston and valving, more shock oil, and an enlarged nitrogen chamber. These upgrades significantly improve compression and rebound response, vastly enhancing handling characteristics and providing extreme durability even under the most demanding conditions.
The exterior of the shock body is threaded along its entire length to accommodate the spring preload adjustment collar, while the interior is fitted with a threaded lower shock mount and collar. This allows for independent changes to ride height and spring preload, enabling you to adjust corner weights to achieve optimal four-wheel corner balance without sacrificing ride quality. Additionally, the shock bodies and threads are protected from the elements by gold zinc electroplating, and the lower shock mounts are powder-coated.
Following rigorous testing, we chose to install linear-rate springs rather than progressive ones. Featuring spring rates of 10kg/mm front and 8kg/mm rear, linear springs provide more stable consistency under all varying weight loads, whether cornering or hitting bumps. This results in the most predictable vehicle feedback in any driving situation. Each 2.5-inch spring is made from the highest quality AE9254V chrome vanadium, specially forged to work in tandem with the oil/nitrogen-filled struts to provide the ultimate balance of street and track performance.
Each Pro-ST coilover features a knurled knob machined into the top of the shock shaft. The 12-way adjustment variation gives you full control over your vehicle's ride quality and handling. This allows for adjustments tailored to street or track use, and everything in between, in seconds without removing the wheels.
The strength of a suspension system is determined by its mounts to the chassis. Therefore, every Pro-ST kit includes aluminum, CNC-machined, and anodized top mounts for maximum strength and protection from the elements. High-quality polyurethane bushings are included to maintain precise handling and feedback while retaining a more cushioned feel for the street. Additionally, padded spring seats at the top of each spring and nylon thrust washers at the bottom reduce friction and eliminate the noise from spring bind commonly found in many coilover systems.

Before Ordering
〇 Regarding Import Consumption Tax
At Shaftoya Shopping Site, we cover the import consumption tax incurred at the time of import, so there will be no additional charges beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
〇 Compatibility Check
Our entire product database is based on North American (USDM) vehicles, so please confirm compatibility with Japanese (JDM) vehicles before ordering. (If you are unsure whether the listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will investigate for you.)
If you order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if items are sorted by selecting the year, manufacturer, and vehicle model in the tabs on our top page, it does not necessarily mean they are compatible with Japanese-model vehicles without modification.
All products have been translated into Japanese using translation software. There may be confusing expressions, so if you have any questions, please contact us before ordering.
○ Regarding Delivery
Shipping costs are paid at the time of checkout. Estimates for shipping can be calculated automatically by entering your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, there may occasionally be a significant discrepancy between the automatically calculated shipping cost and the actual shipping cost. In such cases, we will contact you individually via email.
All products are generally shipped internationally from our US warehouse. Unlike domestic Japanese shipping, international shipping takes about 7 to 14 days, so please allow ample time when ordering. If you are in a hurry, please contact us in advance to confirm the delivery time. All items are transported via air freight; they are not shipped via sea freight.
○ Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) Compatibility
The products we handle are generally all designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please note that they do not conform to the "Japanese Vehicle Inspection System," and we cannot provide strength calculation documents or similar paperwork for the Japanese inspection system. Therefore, all parts are sold for the purpose of "use on circuits, private property, or off-road," and installation and use are at your own risk.
○ Regarding Warranty
Please check the contents immediately upon arrival. Since all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, there may be shipping damage to the packaging or products. For items with shipping damage, defective products, or incorrect items, we will handle returns, refunds, or replacements only if notified within 7 days of receipt. Please understand that for products sold through us, warranty-related support will be handled "only through us." Please note that we do not handle support through other companies or distributors located within Japan.
