Honda NSX NA1 1990-2005 — Coilovers

The NA1 NSX rides on an all-aluminium monocoque with a mid-mounted C30A VTEC V6, a combination Honda deliberately tuned for friendly, progressive handling rather than the knife-edge balance of its mid-engine rivals. Three decades on, the factory dampers that gave it that famous composure are almost always the weak link, and a modern coilover set is the most effective way to recover the chassis the car left the factory with. This XYZ Racing coilover range for the 1990-2005 Honda NSX NA1 gives you adjustable ride height and damping built around the car’s light kerb weight and double-wishbone geometry.

Available in nine specifications – Super Sport, Top Sport, Racing Spec, Circuit Master and more – the range spans a road-biased setup that preserves the NA1’s everyday usability through to dedicated circuit and rally builds. You pick the spec to match how you actually use the car, whether that is Sunday B-roads or trailing the brakes into Druids.

What these coilovers do for your 1990-2005 Honda NSX NA1

Fresh damping changes how the NA1 puts its weight down. Where tired factory struts let the nose float and the tail feel vague on turn-in, adjustable XYZ Racing units give you a firmer, more linear response suited to the car’s roughly 1370kg kerb weight. Ride-height adjustment drops the centre of gravity and lets you correct the slightly nose-high stance early cars wear, while corner-weighting becomes possible for owners chasing balance. On a short-wheelbase mid-engined coupe, controlling rear-axle movement under lift-off and trail-braking is the difference between trusting the throttle on corner exit and second-guessing it. The damping adjustment also lets you separate a compliant road tune from a tied-down track setting without swapping parts.

About the XYZ Racing coilover range

XYZ Racing builds each unit in this range as a full strut assembly with threaded spring perches for ride height and independent damping adjustment, rather than the lowering-spring compromise many NA1 owners settle for. The spec you choose sets the character: Street Advanced and Super Sport lean toward fast-road compliance, Top Sport and Circuit Master toward repeated track sessions, and the Drift Spec, Tarmac Rally, Gravel Rally and Pro Rally builds exist for owners running the car well off the conventional circuit. Spring rates and valving differ across the range so the setup matches the discipline instead of forcing one tune on every use case. For a coupe as sensitive to damping as the NSX, that matching matters – the wrong rate makes a light car skittish, the right one makes it faithful. Every spec works to the NA1’s double-wishbone hardpoints, so the geometry stays where Honda intended.

Fitment for the Honda NSX NA1 (1990-2005)

These coilovers are built for the NA1-chassis Honda NSX across the full 1990 to 2005 production run, covering the early pop-up-headlight cars through to the later fixed-headlight facelift. Confirm your chassis code reads NA1 before ordering, as fitment is specific to this generation’s front and rear wishbone mounting points.
