XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Nissan SKYLINE R33 GTST 1995-1998

The R33 GTST was engineered as a GT machine first – a car designed to cover ground quickly and comfortably rather than to exploit a circuit. The RB25DET’s turbocharged power delivery rewards confident chassis control, but the factory suspension’s compliance-biased calibration lets body lean build earlier in fast corners than the platform’s rear-wheel-drive dynamics actually require. Nissan tuned the R33 for long-distance composure; the result is a car that has considerably more handling potential than its stock springs and dampers will release.

The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilovers for the Nissan Skyline R33 GTST address that gap directly. Ride height adjustment and 36-way damping control give owners a single system that works across the car’s natural range of use – from motorway touring to the focused, low, well-planted stance that a fast-road Saturday or a circuit day demands.

What this coilover does for your 1995-1998 Nissan Skyline R33 GTST

Fitting the Super Sport closes the gap between the R33’s GT-touring factory setup and the handling balance its rear-wheel-drive platform is capable of. The R33’s rear multilink suspension responds directly to damper rate changes: increasing the rear setting brings in the body movement that accumulates through sustained fast bends without making the car harsh on the broken surfaces common on UK roads. Ride height adjustment lets owners lower both axles, reducing the cornering lean that the R33’s long-travel factory suspension allows and improving driver confidence where the stock setup can feel vague. The 36-way damping range means the same kit covers the daily commute and a weekend circuit session, adjusted between the two without removing the coilovers from the car.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport is the XYZ Racing coilover series built around the demands of fast-road driving and weekend circuit use – a brief that suits the R33 GTST’s dual-use character well. Ride height is fully adjustable, allowing owners to run at near-standard height for daily clearance requirements or lower for improved chassis poise and visual stance at events. Thirty-six damping positions define the series: at the softer end the damper absorbs surface noise and road imperfections that would make a firmer, track-only setup uncomfortable on UK roads; at the firmer end it controls the lateral body movement that erodes confidence in sustained fast corners. That range is broad enough to meet genuinely different road conditions from the same set of coilovers, covering both uses without a separate track setup.

Fitment for the Nissan Skyline R33 GTST (1995-1998)

This coilover set is designed for the Nissan Skyline R33 GTST, chassis code NI38, covering 1995 to 1998 production. The GTST is the rear-wheel-drive turbocharged variant; the AWD GT-R uses different suspension geometry and subframe pick-up points and requires a separate kit.
