Over-engineered hardware for the most discerning Honda enthusiasts. At Chicane Australia, we provide specialised supply for RV6 Performance. By utilising advanced 3D laser scanning and Solidworks CAD modelling, RV6 creates performance hardware that matches OEM fitment while delivering massive gains in airflow and chassis rigidity. We facilitate fast sourcing and reliable delivery across Australia for their flagship ball-bearing turbos, ceramic-coated downpipes, and motorsport-grade suspension components.
The RV6 Technical Advantage & R660 Turbo Science
RV6 Performance is most famous for the R660 Red turbocharger, which ditches the tiny factory TD04 frame for a significantly larger TD05 bearing housing. This allows for the use of a full-sized 8mm ceramic ball bearing and a MAR-M Super Alloy turbine wheel that can withstand extreme track temperatures. Beyond forced induction, RV6 is the trusted partner for HPD (Honda Performance Development) road racing teams, providing the spherical suspension technology required to remove all deflection and "slop" from the modern Type R chassis.
Our sourcing capabilities cover the flagship RV6 Performance range: • R660 Red Ball Bearing Turbo: A direct drop-in 370kW+ solution featuring a billet point-milled compressor wheel for the Civic Type R (FL5/FK8). • High-Temp Catted Downpipes: Utilising premium GESi metal cores and 304 stainless steel construction to accelerate turbo spool without common efficiency issues. • Spherical Bushing Kits: Precision-machined front compliance mounts and rear knuckle bushings that provide laser-accurate handling for Civic Type R (FL5) track builds. • Adjustable Control Arms: Chromoly rear lower arms and toe links designed for complete camber control on lowered Civic (FE/FL) platforms.
Based on the Central Coast, NSW, we provide the technical expertise to assist you in selecting the correct ceramic coatings and supporting hardware to ensure your RV6 upgrades perform reliably in the Australian heat. We work closely with our supply network to ensure your authentic hardware is sourced and despatched with professional care and speed.
RV6 Performance FAQ
Why does RV6 use a TD05 frame for the R660 turbo?
The factory turbo uses a small TD04 frame which is great for response but cannot reliably handle big power. By upsizing to the TD05 bearing housing, RV6 gains more room for oversized 8mm ball bearings and larger coolant passages, allowing you to push past 370kW without compromising the life of the turbo.
What is the benefit of the Ceramic Coating option?
RV6 offers professional Silver and Black Ceramic coatings for their downpipes and front pipes. This acts as a thermal barrier, keeping the heat inside the exhaust to increase exhaust velocity while significantly reducing the ambient temperature in your engine bay.
How quickly can you source RV6 products?
We utilise a robust international and local supply network to provide the fastest possible turnaround. Most RV6 downpipes, front pipes, and spherical bushings for the Civic Type R (FL5) are sourced and despatched within a short timeframe for delivery nationwide.
