The AST 5200 Series Coilovers for the 1991-1995 Honda Civic 1.6 16V Vtec (EG5) are high-performance suspension components designed for precise handling and adjustable ride characteristics. These coilovers feature 2-way adjustable shock absorbers, allowing users to fine-tune compression and rebound damping independently. Built upon the technology of competition-grade 3-way adjustable shocks, the 5200 series offers advanced control over suspension dynamics. The design incorporates an evolution of the compression adjuster used in the American Grand-Am series, ensuring quick and straightforward setup. These coilovers are engineered to deliver improved stability, responsiveness, and durability for both street and track applications, making them suitable for enthusiasts seeking a customizable suspension upgrade.

Designed specifically for 1991-1995 Honda Civic models with the 1.6 16V Vtec engine, these coilovers are a direct bolt-on upgrade that replaces factory components. They are ideal for street performance, track days, or spirited driving, providing adjustable ride height and damping settings to suit various driving conditions. The kit includes shock absorbers with adjustable features, enabling precise tuning for optimal handling. Installation is straightforward for those familiar with suspension modifications, and these coilovers are compatible with the EG5 chassis. They are suitable for drivers seeking a versatile suspension solution that enhances both daily driving comfort and competitive performance.

Overview

The 5200 Series for the 1991-1995 Honda Civic 1.6 16V Vtec (EG5) are 2-way adjustable shock absorbers which are based upon competition 3-way adjustable shock absorbers. The 5200 shock absorbers are adjustable in compression and rebound.

The design of the compression adjuster is an evolution of the compression adjuster we provided for the American Grand-Am series for the last few years. The 5200 shock absorbers were designed to achieve a quick and easy set up, allowing separate adjustment of compression and rebound.

The 5200 Series AST uses an external canister. Throughout testing and competitions, the 5200 has been praised for its performance and capabilities, surpassing other major, more expensive brands and setting a new standard of 2 way damper. Its no surprise that the 5200 is fast becoming a favorite damper amongst race teams and track day enthusiasts world wide.
