XYZ Racing Drag Racing Coilovers — Honda CRV V 2017-2023

The Honda CRV V carries its mass high and soft from the factory, tuned for the school run rather than the standing start. That kerb weight and tall body work against you the moment you launch: the nose lifts, the driven wheels go light, and the first sixty feet leak away in wheelspin. XYZ Racing’s Drag Racing coilover for the 2017-2023 CRV V exists to reorder that weight transfer and put traction where it counts.

These are built for 0-400 metre work, not lap times and not kerb-hopping comfort. The damping and ride-height settings are chosen to control how the chassis loads its driven axle off the line, so the launch is repeatable and the top end stays settled.

What this coilover does for your 2017-2023 Honda CRV V

Set up correctly, the coilover shifts load onto whichever axle drives your CRV V under power, planting the transmission wheels at the hit. What the driver feels is a harder initial bite and far less idle wheelspin in the critical first metres, where elapsed time is won or lost. Lowering the ride height drops the centre of gravity, so the tall CRV body squats and settles rather than pitching, keeping the contact patch loaded as boost arrives. At the far end of the strip, the firmer control holds this heavy SUV stable through the trap speeds where a stock CRV V would float and wander.

About the Drag Racing coilover

The Drag Racing coilover is engineered specifically for standing-start acceleration rather than circuit or fast-road duty, and the same platform is configured for front-wheel, rear-wheel or four-wheel-drive cars. Its defining trick is deliberate weight management: the spring and damper settings let the chassis throw load onto the driven axle at the instant you launch, forcing greater compression into the transmission tyres. That extra compression is what cuts the dead time of a spinning wheel and gets drive to the tarmac sooner. Beyond the launch, the setup is aimed at keeping the car steady as speed climbs, so stability at the top of the run does not fall away. Height adjustment lets you set the static rake and corner balance that suit your CRV V’s drivetrain and tyre choice.

Fitment for the Honda CRV V (2017-2023)

This kit is cut for the fifth-generation Honda CRV V, chassis code HN29-2, covering the 2017 to 2023 model years. Confirm your build year falls inside that span, and note whether your car is front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive before configuring, as that decides how you balance the corner weights.
