Do the RS-R Best-i Active Coilovers for DE5 Integra Type S need a warning canceller?

No. The Best-i Active Coilovers for DE5 cars carry RS-R electromagnetic valves that the factory adaptive damper system operates, and the wiring is plug-and-play, so no suspension warning appears. RS-R includes a rear wiring lead in the kit for that connection, and no separate canceller is needed.

Will the Integra Type S drive modes still change the suspension?

Yes. The factory system keeps varying the damping as the drive mode changes. The RS-R adjuster sets the base level the electronics work from, so each mode starts from the setting you choose and the car can be made softer or firmer overall without losing the mode switch.

How much lower will a DE5 Integra Type S sit?

At the RS-R preset the car sits about 20mm to 25mm lower at both the front and the rear. RS-R recommends a range of 0mm to minus 45mm at the front and minus 5mm to minus 50mm at the rear, so it can be set close to stock or lowered further.

What is the difference between the Best-i Active and the Club Racer for the Integra Type S?

The Best-i Active keeps the factory adaptive dampers working and runs 8.0 kg/mm front and 6.0 kg/mm rear springs for road comfort. The Club Racer uses manual dampers, stiffer 10 kg/mm and 13 kg/mm springs and pillowball front mounts, and is set up for the track.

Can the dampers be rebuilt?

Yes. RS-R builds and assembles the Active range in-house in Japan, so the dampers can be overhauled rather than replaced when they need service. RS-R USA covers the kit for 1 year or 12,000 miles from purchase, and a rebuild restores the original ride.

Description

RS-R Best-i Active Coilovers for DE5 Acura Integra Type S

RS-R’s Best-i Active Coilovers for DE5 Acura Integra Type S lower the car while leaving Acura’s adaptive damper system in control. RS-R builds its own electromagnetic valves into plug-and-play dampers, so the factory electronics keep running them, the drive modes still work and no warning light appears. Springs are 8.0 kg/mm front and 6.0 kg/mm rear, and the car settles about 20mm to 25mm lower at each end at RS-R’s preset. Every set is assembled in Osaka and can be overhauled. For an Integra Type S that lives on the road and should keep every factory function, this is the RS-R kit to choose.

Design and Performance

Every damper in the Active range is a full-length adjustable monotube, so height is set at the lower mount and stroke stays the same however low the car goes. RS-R’s 36-step adjuster sets the base damping and the factory system varies it with the drive mode, so Sport still firms the car from wherever you have set it. The front runs as a coilover strut and the multi-link rear keeps a separate spring, as it does from the factory.

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.
