XYZ Racing Racing Spec Coilovers — Chevrolet CAMARO CONVERTIBLE 6 CYL 2011-2015

The Camaro Convertible gives up some of the coupe’s torsional rigidity for the drop-top body, which means the suspension has to do more work managing chassis flex through fast direction changes than it does on the fixed-roof car. XYZ Racing’s Racing Spec coilover is built for exactly that demand – a kit designed around cars that see real circuit time, not just a firmer ride on the school run.

This is the range built for serious track and time-attack days rather than fast-road comfort. Damper settings come from XYZ Racing’s own circuit programme rather than a bench rig, so the Camaro gets control that holds up through repeated hot laps instead of fading after the first few.

What this coilover does for your 2011-2015 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible

Swap the factory struts for this kit and the Convertible’s extra body flex stops working against the chassis mid-corner – the damping is set up to keep the car settled through the kind of fast transitions a soft-top has to manage without a fixed roof to lean on. Ride height and spring rate are adjustable, so you can drop the centre of gravity and cut the weight transfer that a tall factory setup sends onto the outside tyre under load. On corner entry, where a Convertible’s extra mass shows up hardest under trail-braking, the Racing Spec’s firmer valving keeps the nose settled instead of diving and pushing wide. Braking stability improves too, since the kit is tuned to resist the pitch that a factory-soft Camaro suspension allows under hard deceleration into a corner. The result on a 2011-2015 Camaro Convertible is a chassis that turns in on command and stays consistent through a full session of hard use, rather than one that degrades as the tyres and dampers heat up.

About the Racing Spec coilover

XYZ Racing developed the Racing Spec line directly from its own programme racing in touring car competition, including WTCC, and the damping in this kit is pulled from that circuit-derived data rather than a generic street tune. It is built specifically for track race use, with settings proven under real competition conditions rather than simulated on a rig. For a Camaro pushed further than this off-the-shelf spec covers – cars carrying factory-level racing modifications or built to A-class competition rules – XYZ Racing will build a bespoke shock absorber around the car’s actual specification and the circuit it runs on, rather than asking the owner to make do with a standard part. That custom-build route exists specifically for owners who have already gone beyond bolt-on upgrades and need the damper matched to the rest of the car, based on the modifications fitted and the track the car is run on.

Fitment for the Chevrolet Camaro Convertible (2011-2015)

This kit is built for the Chevrolet Camaro Convertible 6-cylinder, chassis code CH01-C, covering the 2011 to 2015 model years. Confirm your car matches this generation and drivetrain before ordering, as coupe and V8 Camaro variants use different fitment.
