XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Nissan CUBE Z12 TYPE 1 2009-2014

The Nissan Cube Z12’s tall, box-section body and front-wheel drive layout sits on factory suspension calibrated for urban comfort above all else – the standard setup rolls freely in corners, pitches over crests, and carries its centre of gravity higher than its narrow footprint warrants. The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover kit for the Z12 TYPE 1 gives owners direct control over both of those characteristics: adjustable ride height to bring the body down where it should have started, and 36-way damping adjustment to replace the factory’s one-size-suits-nobody compromise.

On a platform like the Z12, even a moderate reduction in ride height measurably lowers the roll couple, and pairing that with independently adjustable damping transforms how the car responds to direction changes. The Super Sport series is developed for fast-road and weekend track use – a brief that maps neatly onto what the Z12 actually needs rather than the race-circuit applications that suit lower, stiffer platforms.

What this coilover does for your 2009-2014 Nissan CUBE Z12 TYPE 1

The Z12’s high roofline and relatively modest wheelbase make it unusually responsive to roll stiffness changes – stiffen the damping a few clicks and the body composure through urban chicanes and open-road sweepers improves noticeably, with the nose tracking more faithfully through direction changes where the standard setup would introduce the characteristic FWD understeer push. The 36-way adjustment range covers everything from a compliance-first setting for broken British tarmac to a firmer configuration for a track morning, with enough resolution between those extremes to find a usable everyday position in between. Dropping the ride height reduces the mass swinging above the axle line, which is the single most effective geometric intervention on a tall-bodied FWD car – less body roll means more consistent front-axle grip and a more progressive feel at the limit.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport is XYZ Racing’s dual-brief coilover, engineered to absorb road surface harshness more effectively than factory units while delivering the adjustability that standard Cube suspension was never designed to offer. The damper construction eliminates the jolt and rebound oscillation common on UK urban surfaces, making it a practical daily fitment rather than a track-only modification. Thirty-six clicks of damping adjustment give sufficient resolution to distinguish meaningfully between a commute setting and a weekend configuration – not just the coarse top-and-bottom extremes of cheaper units. Ride height and spring preload adjust independently, so the car can be set at the correct height for tyre clearance and aesthetics without compromising damper function. XYZ Racing rates the Super Sport for weekend racing and daily use simultaneously, a twin brief that reflects the damper’s consistency across repeated compression cycles on roads that rarely behave predictably.

Fitment for the Nissan CUBE Z12 TYPE 1 (2009-2014)

This kit is configured for the Nissan Cube Z12 TYPE 1 under chassis code NI62, covering the 2009 to 2014 production window. The Z12 was offered across multiple trim specifications and the TYPE 1 designation is specific – confirm your vehicle matches before ordering, as mounting geometries differ between Cube variants.
