XYZ Racing Drag Racing Coilovers — Ferrari CALIFORNIA (Both front and rear top mount are 4 holes) (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2008-2014

The first-generation Ferrari California carries its 4.3-litre V8 ahead of the cabin and a folding metal roof high over the rear axle, so mass pitches rearward the instant you load the throttle. The XYZ Racing Drag Racing Coilovers for the Ferrari California are built around that launch moment, setting the car to plant its rear tyres rather than light them up off the line.

This kit also ships as a cancellation setup for the California’s factory electronic damping, replacing the adaptive magnetorheological struts with manually adjustable units and a delete harness so the dash stops hunting for the original dampers. For a 2008-2014 California used for straight-line work, that swap trades adaptive softness for a fixed, repeatable platform you set once and trust down the strip.

What this coilover does for your 2008-2014 Ferrari California

Set up for 0 to 400 metre running, the coilovers bias front-to-rear weight transfer toward the driven rear wheels, loading the contact patch hard at launch so the California squats and grips instead of spinning. Ride-height adjustment lets you build static rake into a car that left the factory flat and softly sprung, while firmer rate control settles the nose-heavy front through the faster end of the run. On a heavy front-engined GT, that means less idle wheelspin away from the line and a steadier platform as speed climbs toward terminal. Because height is adjustable independently of damping, you can corner-weight the car and tune rear squat without fighting the original adaptive system.

About the Drag Racing coilover

The Drag Racing coilover is one of XYZ Racing’s specialist series, developed specifically for 0 to 400 metre acceleration rather than circuit or fast-road use. The same design logic spans front-, rear- and four-wheel-drive cars: spring and damping settings are chosen to shift weight onto whichever axle puts the power down, which on the rear-drive California means feeding load into the back tyres at the moment of launch. By forcing greater compression into the driven tyre, the setup cuts the dead time where a wheel spins without translating into forward motion, then holds the car steady as speed builds. Height is adjusted at the coilover body, and this particular kit is supplied with four-hole front and rear top mounts to match the California’s mounting pattern, alongside the electronic-damping cancellation hardware noted above.

Fitment for the Ferrari California (2008-2014)

This kit is cut for the first-generation Ferrari California, chassis code FE04-C, across the full 2008 to 2014 production run. It uses four-hole top mounts front and rear, so confirm your car carries the matching four-bolt upper mounts before ordering. It is supplied as the cancellation version for cars originally fitted with electronic adaptive damping.
