XYZ Racing Circuit Master Coilovers — Ferrari CALIFORNIA (Both front and rear top mount are 2 holes) (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2008-2014

The California’s front-mid V8 layout and folding hardtop give it a kerb weight north of 1,700kg, and the factory magnetorheological damping was tuned to hide that mass on a B-road rather than control it through a fast sequence at Snetterton. Once you start asking the car for repeat braking zones and committed turn-in, the standard setup runs out of body control long before the chassis runs out of grip.

The XYZ Racing Circuit Master is the answer when a California owner has decided the car is going to do circuit work – properly, on slicks or semis, with a coach in the passenger seat. It includes the cancellation kit for the factory electronic damping, so the ECU stops fighting the new hardware, and the two-hole front and rear top mounts match this specific 2008-2014 FE04-1-C chassis variant.

What this coilover does for your 2008-2014 Ferrari California

Swapping out the magnetic-ride hardware for a fully mechanical, externally adjustable damper transforms how the California behaves under load. With the cancellation kit fitted, the suspension is no longer trying to second-guess driver inputs through a control loop that was never written for a circuit. You get a planted, predictable platform that holds attitude through long, loaded corners like Paddock Hill or Becketts, with the front axle staying loaded into the apex instead of washing wide.

The Circuit Master’s 9720 adjustment combinations mean you can tune the car for the surface, the temperature, and the tyre – softer for a green Donington morning, then wound up two clicks across high and low speed when the track comes in. Roll is contained, dive under heavy braking shortens, and the rear stays composed when you get back to throttle out of slow corners.

About the Circuit Master coilover

The Circuit Master sits at the top of the XYZ Racing competition ladder, alongside the Racing Spec, Drift Spec and Tarmac Rally variants, and it is the platform XYZ’s own race teams run internationally. The damper uses three independent adjustment knobs working through a small-orifice valving design, which is what unlocks the 9720-way adjustment range – high-speed bump, low-speed bump, and rebound can each be tuned to a specific corner phase rather than averaged across the lap.

Construction is built for sustained heat cycling, not weekend road use. Because the oil is forced through small passages by design, you will hear a faint click or rustle from the dampers when the car rolls over heavy expansion joints or kerbs at low speed – that is the valving doing its job, and on a circuit surface it disappears entirely. This is a competition-spec damper that has been validated by XYZ race teams across multiple international series.

Fitment for the Ferrari California (2008-2014)

Built for the FE04-1-C chassis California with the two-hole front and rear top-mount pattern, model years 2008 to 2014. The kit includes the cancellation module needed to disable the factory electronic damping signal, so no fault codes or limp-mode behaviour after installation. Confirm your top-mount bolt pattern before ordering – this fitment is specific to the two-hole variant.
