XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Honda CIVIC TYPE-R FK8 (Modified Rear lntegrated) 2017-2026

The FK8’s dual-axis front struts were Honda’s own answer to torque steer, but they only manage the K20C1’s shove up to a point – past that, spring rate and damper control decide how much of it reaches the road clean. The Super Sport coilover is built for owners running this chassis hard on a Sunday and still wanting it civil on the Monday commute.

For a Civic Type R that sees fast-road miles and the occasional trackday, that means a kit which can be firmed up for a circuit session and backed off again without a toolbox full of spanners. Height and damping are both in your hands, not fixed at the factory compromise Honda had to build for every buyer.

What this coilover does for your 2017-2026 Honda Civic Type-r FK8 (modified Rr lntegrated)

With 36 damping positions to work through, you can set the front end firm enough to control body roll under trail-braking into a hairpin, then soften the rear for a smoother ride home on B-roads that a stock FK8 already treats roughly. Ride height adjustment lets you drop the centre of gravity for track days or correct stance and wheel-gap without touching spring rate, which matters on a chassis this sensitive to front-axle load transfer under hard turn-in. Because the damping range spans both ends of the use spectrum, you’re not locked into a harsh daily ride just to get track-capable control when you want it. The result is a Type R that turns in with less of the front-end push the standard setup allows, and settles again rather than fighting you out of the corner.

About the Super Sport coilover

Super Sport is XYZ Racing’s answer to a common complaint with aftermarket coilovers: that a setup stiff enough for weekend racing beats you up on ordinary roads. The damper body carries 36 discrete adjustment steps, giving a genuinely usable range between comfort and control rather than a token few clicks either side of centre. Ride height is independently adjustable, so lowering the car for a track session or dialling in a daily-driver stance doesn’t force a compromise on spring preload. XYZ built this range to sit in the middle of its coilover line-up – more adjustment and more capability than a fast-road-only kit, without stepping into the stiffness of a dedicated race damper. It’s the spec aimed at the driver who wants one car for both jobs: quick on a circuit, tolerable on the drive there.
