Aragosta 5K/6K Type E Suspension Kit with Pillowball Upper Mounts for EK4 & EK9 Honda Civic SiR & Type R

Aragosta’s Type-E dampers are designed with spirited street driving and comfortable cruising in mind. The Type-E includes several of high tech features of their Type-S and Type-SS high-performance coilovers, including low-friction, WPC-treated inverted struts, height-adjustable rana springs, specially formulated synthetic damper fluid, and Aragosta’s unique low-friction seals. Additionally, the Type-E features 12-step rebound adjustment knobs (not available for some vehicles) on the bottom of each damper and pillowball upper mounts (camber adjustable mounts available for some applications).

The Ultimate in Smooth Performance

The Aragosta Type S Coilover Suspension systems incorporate cutting-edge features to achieve exceptional performance. The ultra-lightweight, high-pressure forged aluminum cylinder undergoes next-generation film treatment and Kashima coating, resulting in remarkable lubricity. With impregnated molybdenum, the cylinder achieves unparalleled friction reduction and durability, surpassing conventional hard alumite coatings. These advancements enable the coilovers to deliver superior linearity, smoothness, and traction ability at a high level, providing an ultimate driving experience.

High-Precision Machining

Aragosta prioritizes precision in cylinder processing, achieving surface roughness of 0.2 microns and 2/10000 mm for both aluminum and steel cylinders. Advanced honing treatment is performed to enhance surface accuracy and roundness inside the cylinder, a rarity among damper manufacturers, underscoring Aragosta’s commitment to excellence.

Superior Finishing Technology

The steel cylinder and outer case are coated with cationic electrodeposition coating, renowned for its exceptional rust prevention, impact resistance, and durability. This reliable electrodeposition process ensures maximum coverage and extended lifespan.

Equipped with High-Performance Spring as Standard

All Aragosta Type S Coilover Suspension systems come equipped with rana springs as standard, embodying the ideal of a series-wound spring. These high-quality and durable springs contribute to maximizing damper performance, ensuring consistent and reliable rates.

Sharpened Internal Structure

Aragosta’s outstanding performance is supported by damper pistons and needles capable of controlling fine damping characteristics at extremely low speeds. This wide range of adjustability covers settings from comfort to sport, significantly enhancing traction performance. The external damping force adjustment mechanism provides a clear characteristic change within the 20-step adjustment range, offering a smooth and direct click feel for precise customization.

High Hardness, High Efficiency WPC Processing

The inverted cartridge cylinder utilizes precision shot peening (WPC processing), the best technology for modifying metal surfaces. In cartridge cylinders with high sway resistance, the wear coefficient is reduced, and oil film retention in the sway part is significantly improved. Aragosta’s manufacturing philosophy prioritizes performance, investing time and resources into parts that may not be visible, but crucial for overall functionality.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
