XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — Honda LEGEND KA7 1991-1995

The first-generation Honda Legend KA7 is a long, heavy, front-drive luxury saloon with a 3.2-litre C32A V6 hung ahead of the front axle line – a layout that loads the nose under braking and asks a lot of the outside front tyre on turn-in. The XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally coilover is built specifically to manage that mass over broken sealed surfaces, controlling the body while keeping the contact patch loaded through camber changes and mid-corner bumps.

Tarmac rally is the brief here, not circuit work. That means damping tuned to absorb sudden vertical inputs – crests, kerb edges, repaired patches mid-apex – without unsettling the chassis or pinging the tyre off the surface.

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

On a KA7 the immediate gain is composure over surfaces that previously had the soft factory dampers running out of travel. The Tarmac Rally damping settings are drawn from XYZ Racing’s own rally programme, which means the kit is calibrated to soak up a sharp hit and recover quickly rather than packing down and skating. You should feel a flatter platform under hard braking into a stage corner, less front-end float on the long Legend wheelbase, and noticeably more bite from the outside front when you load it up. Ride height comes down, weight transfer slows, and traction off the throttle – always the limiting factor on a heavy front-driver – improves because the inside front stays planted instead of unloading.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

The Tarmac Rally is engineered for sealed-stage rallying where impacts are heavy but the surface is technically a road. The damper is built to absorb the jolt of crossing a big bump, suppressing shock through the body so the tyre keeps working rather than skipping. That focus on impact absorption is the design brief – vehicle stability through uneven pavement, with the tyre held against the surface long enough to put power down. Every setting in the kit is drawn directly from XYZ Racing’s own Tarmac Rally competition experience, so the baseline tune is a known quantity rather than a generic spring-and-damper combination shimmed to fit. Construction is suited to repeated heavy stage loads.

Fitment for the Honda Legend (1991-1995)

This kit is built for the KA7 chassis Legend, covering the 1991 to 1995 production run of the first-generation saloon with the C32A V6. Confirm your chassis code matches KA7 before ordering – the later KA8 coupe and saloon use a different setup.
