XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Honda LEGEND KA7 1991-1995

The KA7 Legend is one of the more unusual platforms still being sorted in 2026 – a long, front-drive Honda saloon with a transverse C32A V6 hanging ahead of the front axle line and the soft, comfort-biased damping the factory engineers signed off for executive buyers in the early nineties. Three decades on, the original struts are tired, the ride has gone floaty over expansion joints, and the nose-heavy weight bias makes itself felt the moment you load the front end into a roundabout.

The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover is the right answer for a KA7 owner who still wants to drive the car on a Sunday morning B-road, point it at a Cadwell trackday once a season, and live with it on the school run in between. Height-adjustable, 36-way damping, and a spring rate that finally matches the mass sitting over the front wheels.

What this coilover does for your 1991-1995 Honda Legend KA7

Drop the ride height and the KA7 stops looking like it is hovering over its arches – the 16-inch wheels finally fill the gaps and the centre of gravity comes down where the V6’s mass wants it. The 36-way damping range is the part that actually changes how the car feels: wind it soft for the commute and the long-travel comfort the Legend was sold on is preserved; wind it firmer at the weekend and the front end stops washing wide when you carry speed into a third-gear corner. Body roll through quick direction changes is reined in without the secondary harshness that cheaper kits trade for control. Brake dive, the KA7’s worst habit under hard stops, settles into something the driver can actually trust.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport is XYZ Racing’s fast-road damper, built around 36-way bump-and-rebound adjustment from a single knob at the top of each unit. The brief was to take the harshness out of bumps and rough surfaces without giving up the body control that a lowered, stiffer-sprung car needs. Ride height is independently adjustable at each corner, so corner-weighting a four-door Legend at home with a set of scales is on the table. Construction is the standard XYZ shock-and-sleeve format, sized and valved to suit the platform rather than shared across the catalogue. The intent is genuinely dual-purpose: a damper you can set up for a weekend race meeting on Saturday and reset for Monday’s motorway run without pulling the car apart.

Fitment for the Honda Legend (1991-1995)

This kit is specified for the first-generation KA7 Legend saloon, 1991 through 1995, with the C32A V6 and front-wheel-drive layout. Confirm your chassis stamp reads KA7 before ordering – the later KA8 coupe and the second-generation Legend use a different damper specification.
