Rigid Collar

About Rigid Collar

Rigid Collars are cleaver little devices that allow you to perfectly alight the sub-frame of a car to the chassis. Worldwide Patent granted, do not accept inferior copies. www. rigidcollar.com

Rigid Collar Description

RIGID COLLAR are simple in their shape, clever in their design, the material from which they are made is confidential and their performance is unbelieavble. Designed by Tatsura Ichichma of Spoon Japan, we expect nothing less.

The basic principle is one of chassis strengthening and rigidity without going overboard and compromising the cars inherent handling characteristics.

The Rigid Collar kit is simple to fit and low cost, Rigid Collars ease into position without affecting the basic geometry of the body.


The way the Rigid Collar works is simple. Bolt holes through the chassis panel and sub frame are normally too big as they were designed for ease of production in the factory.

When the car leaves the factory, everything is new and tight and the chassis hardly moves. After a while, the bolts become slightly looser and movement between the panels begins.


This is why an older vehicle fitted with new bushes, Shocks and springs, still doesn't behave like a new car.


The Rigid Collar is an aluminium washer (as per photo) with a square outside Taper to increase adhesion on the Thinner flange portion in the middle. This fits between the moving panels and with a properly sized bolt (and Bolt Hole as part of the Rigid Collar) is crushed into place when tightened, joining the two panels and stopping movement forever.


Rigid Collars cure chassis movement, improve handling, reduce road noise, reduce vibration, improve braking and make the car safer in an accident.


Like we say, simple in design and unbelievable in Performance.

This chassis cut away represents how the Spoon Sports Rigid Collars work. The little golden coloured collars fit between the chassis and the subframe to remove the manufacture tolerances allowed to speed up production. After installation a monocoque effect is achieved. There is a reduction in Noise, Vibrations, Harmonics and the handling is all round improved.
Installation can be done without removing the subframes from the car. Just slacken all the bolts enough to allow the... collars to be slipped in to place and then install them one bolt at a time. Alignment will be required after installation as it will be the first time your subframes are perfectly aligned - now they are aligned perfectly they will never move again.
We have found that installation has cured many issues where customers couldn’t achieve the correct factory alignment settings. Most recently an Integra DC5 where the offside rear could never achieve correct camber. After installation it was possible to achieve exact factory settings.
The Collars are not only available for Honda models. The range now covers most marques including the likes of BMW, Porsche and many European cars
We have a dedicated website with all the listings available www.rigidcollar.com

Another great review for Rigid Collars. This time by Banzai Magazine
We quote their reaction after installation: "it was instantly obvious that the car felt more solid and confidence inspiring"
... They also conducted a road noise test: "Road noise reduced from 68.9bd to 65.3db"
