The Ultimate Strut Bar for your 10th Civic Type R

[procivic]

We're really excited about this new SiriMoto Phase 2 Ultra Carbon Fiber Front Strut Bar that was just released. In our opinion, it's pretty much the ultimate strut bar you can get for your 10th Gen Type R. The looks are killer, the materials premium, and it's super rigid. Plus, it's made from real dry carbon fiber, shaped in a hollow tube structure for max strength and weight savings. And what's more, the length is adjustable, so you can adjust it to provide some suspension pre-load.

I personally was able to feel the difference just lightly driving around with it for about 10 minutes. Steering felt tighter and more responsive.

I've got a Mishimoto oil catch can installed. Would this interfere with fitment?

Good question, it clears the Mishi catch can and SiriMoto fuel kit too. I actually think it should clear almost any catch can or flex fuel kit.

That carbon looks Sick!

This looks promising, but do you know if it will clear a Seibon TS-style carbon hood on an Si? I have a hard time finding a low-profile strut bar that will clear the bulkier structural ribs on the underside of the carbon hood.

The best strut bar is the Carbing Once Piece Steel strut bar

Even though strut bars are cosmetic on this platform. This one does look good.

It's nice and all but a little late to the party. Wonder why they didn't just go for 11th gen at this point. There's already 11th gen strut bars available. I'm pretty sure anyone that considered a front strut bar purchased one years ago.

When this was tested there was more than 10mm of space in some spots between the bar and the OEM hood. I think it probably would work, but not 100% sure.

No it won't. This works with all the popular flex fuel kits too.

Okay, that’s helpful! Willing to test, sent an email.

How much does the whole kit weighs

How much does the whole kit weighs

The bar with everything weighs about 2.9 lbs. The brackets are aircraft grade aluminum and the center is of course pure carbon fiber. Pretty light.

Got a few more juicy pics of this bar installed on an FK8!
