XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — Jaguar F-TYPE (X152) 2013-2026

The X152 F-TYPE was built around a stiff aluminium architecture and a long bonnet sat over a heavy supercharged V6 or V8 – a GT silhouette pressed into service as a sports car. On a sealed special stage, that mass shifts hard under braking and the standard adaptive damping runs out of authority long before the tyre does. The XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally coilover is built specifically for that environment: closed-surface stages where the road is broken but not loose.

This is not the kit for a fast-road F-TYPE or a circuit car. It is the kit for an X152 being prepared for tarmac rallying, where the suspension has to keep a 1.6-tonne aluminium two-seater planted across cambered B-road surfaces, broken kerbs and mid-corner compressions that would unsettle a sports-tuned damper.

What this coilover does for your 2013-2026 Jaguar F-TYPE

Tarmac rally damping changes the F-TYPE’s character at the limit. The valving is engineered to absorb sudden impacts – a lifted ridge in the road, a cats-eye crossed at angle, an apex kerb taken at pace – without sending that energy through the chassis and lifting the inside tyre. On the X152, where the rear axle gets nervous on a poor surface, the result is a rear that stays loaded and a front that bites instead of skating. Braking into a stage corner becomes a one-pedal action again, because the front damper is controlling pitch instead of fighting it. Steering response sharpens because the contact patch is doing more of the work, more of the time.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

The Tarmac Rally damper is built from XYZ Racing’s own stage experience and is purpose-tuned for sealed-surface rally use. Where a track coilover prizes consistency over a flat circuit, this damper is valved to swallow the jolt of a big hit and recover the wheel quickly – shock body movement is suppressed so the tyre is not skipping off the surface and load transfer is kept progressive. The settings are not derived from a fast-road compromise; they are pulled directly from XYZ’s tarmac rally programme. The end result is a damper that keeps tyre traction across surfaces a circuit-spec coilover would simply bounce over, and gives the driver a stable platform to commit to.

Fitment for the Jaguar F-TYPE (2013-2026)

This kit is built for the X152 F-TYPE platform across the full 2013-2026 production run, covering V6, V6 S, V8 R, SVR and four-cylinder variants on the same chassis. Spring rates and strut lengths are matched to the F-TYPE’s specific geometry – confirm your sub-variant and drivetrain (RWD vs AWD) in the configurator before ordering.
