XYZ Racing Top Sport Coilovers — Hyundai GETZ TB 2002-2011

The Hyundai GETZ TB is a featherweight front-driver that rewards stiffer underpinnings more than almost any hatch of its era – the soft factory damping that made it pleasant for the school run becomes the limiting factor the moment you point one at a B-road or a tight technical circuit. The TB’s short wheelbase and modest kerb weight mean it responds quickly to rate changes, and the standard struts run out of control long before the chassis runs out of grip.

The XYZ Racing Top Sport coilover is built for exactly that brief: a GETZ owner who tracks the car a few times a year, autotests or hillclimbs at the weekend, and still drives it to work on Monday. It tightens body control without turning the cabin into a punishment cell.

What this coilover does for your 2002-2011 Hyundai GETZ TB

On the road, the Top Sport calms the GETZ’s tendency to pitch under braking and roll on turn-in, giving the front tyres a flatter contact patch when you load them. Ride-height adjustment lets you drop the arch gap that bothers most owners and corner-balance the car around its inherently light rear. Spring rates roughly 2kg/mm firmer than the street baseline, combined with damping uprated 30-50% over standard tune, mean the chassis sits down on its outside corner instead of leaning onto the bump-stop mid-bend. Across broken UK tarmac the damper still absorbs the sharp hits – potholes, expansion joints, mid-corner ridges – rather than skipping the inside wheel and bleeding traction.

About the Top Sport coilover

The Top Sport is XYZ Racing’s bridge between a fast-road kit and a circuit-only setup. Damping force runs 30-50% firmer than the brand’s street range, and spring rates step up by around 2kg/mm, which is enough to control a light hatch like the GETZ on a trackday without making the car unusable on the commute home. The valving is calibrated to absorb large bump inputs and suppress secondary body movement, so the tyre stays planted under heavy compression rather than chattering across the surface. Height is adjustable across the body, letting you drop the car and corner-weight it. The whole calibration is drawn from XYZ Racing’s own Top Sport competition programme, which is why the kit sits comfortably on the aggressive side of "dual-purpose" rather than at the soft end of it.
