XYZ Racing Racing Spec Coilovers — Honda ELYSION RR1 2004-2013

The Elysion RR1 is an unusual platform to set up for circuit work – a 2-tonne JDM people-mover on a stretched Odyssey-derived chassis, with body roll and pitch behaviours engineered for school-run comfort rather than apex commitment. The XYZ Racing Racing Spec coilover exists for the owner who wants to wring real lap times out of one anyway, or who is running an RR1 as a support vehicle that still needs to keep pace on track.

This is the hardcore tier of the XYZ catalogue, drawn from spec the company runs on its own race programmes. It is not a road-biased kit pretending at track ability – it is the opposite, and that distinction matters when you are buying for a serious time-attack or circuit build on the RR1.

What this coilover does for your 2004-2013 Honda Elysion RR1

On a chassis as tall and as heavy as the RR1, the dominant problem is uncontrolled weight transfer – the nose dives under braking, the body leans onto its outside-front corner mid-corner, and the rear takes a beat to settle on corner exit. The Racing Spec damper attacks that directly. Stiff race-derived valving holds the body flat under load, so the front tyres stay loaded evenly instead of scrubbing the outer shoulder, and the rear axle stops pogoing over kerbs. Pitch on heavy braking zones is reined in, which translates to a more predictable brake bias and later turn-in. Height is fully adjustable so you can drop the centre of gravity to a sensible track ride height and rake the car to suit the circuit you are working. The trade-off is honest: this is a stiff damper built for smooth asphalt, not a fast-road compromise.

About the Racing Spec coilover

The Racing Spec is XYZ Racing’s circuit-and-time-attack tier, and the spec is informed by direct participation in series racing including the WTCC. Every setting on the damper – bump, rebound, spring rate selection, valving curves – has been arrived at through on-track development rather than catalogue extrapolation, which is why the damping feel reads as a race shock rather than a road shock with stiff springs. Construction is sized for sustained heat and load: the kit is engineered to keep its damping characteristics across repeated hard sessions rather than fading after a handful of laps. XYZ also opens the door to fully custom-built shocks for cars running aggressive upgrades – factory-style racing builds or A-class race entries – where you can supply the modification list and circuit data, and the spec is built to that brief. For an RR1 running serious track use, that custom route is worth knowing about.

Fitment for the Honda Elysion RR1 (2004-2013)

This kit is built specifically for the Honda Elysion RR1 chassis across the full 2004-2013 production run. Confirm your chassis-code prefix matches RR1 before ordering – the wider Elysion family runs across RR1 through RR6, and the kit is mapped to the RR1 platform specifically.
