XYZ Racing Racing Spec Coilovers — Honda ODYSSEY RA1~RA5 (WISHBONE) 1995-1999

The first-generation Honda Odyssey RA1-RA5 is an unusual starting point for a Racing Spec coilover, and that is precisely why this kit exists. The wishbone-front Odyssey is heavy, tall, and softly sprung from the factory – a people-carrier chassis that owners in 2026 are increasingly pushing into circuit work, drift-MPV builds, and time-attack novelty entries where the body roll of a stock RA has to be eliminated outright rather than merely tamed.

Racing Spec is XYZ Racing’s track-focused coilover line, developed through the company’s direct participation in WTCC and other circuit series. For an RA1-RA5 Odyssey on the wishbone chassis, that pedigree translates into damper valving that can actually cope with the platform’s mass and high centre of gravity once spring rates are wound up to circuit-usable figures.

What this coilover does for your 1995-1999 Honda Odyssey

The RA Odyssey’s tall body and soft factory damping mean it loads its outside front tyre heavily and slowly in any committed corner, which kills front grip and rolls the car onto the bump stops. Racing Spec answers that with a stiff, monotube-style platform and damping that’s been developed against real race data rather than guessed at on a dyno. You get pitch and roll control that lets the chassis actually use its tyre – turn-in becomes a single movement rather than a roll-then-bite sequence – and brake stability improves the moment you start trail-braking into the apex. Ride height is fully adjustable so you can drop the centre of gravity without bottoming the wishbones on track kerbs.

About the Racing Spec coilover

Racing Spec is XYZ Racing’s competition-tier damper, built specifically for circuit use rather than fast-road compromise. The valving and spring specifications have been arrived at through direct race programmes including WTCC, so the baseline damping curve is a circuit-tested starting point rather than a generic catalogue setting. For unusual builds – cars running aggressive aero, big brakes, slick tyres, or factory-style racing modifications closer to an A-class race car – XYZ Racing will produce custom-valved units to suit the specific upgrade list and the circuit the car will run. To use that service, the customer supplies the full modification spec and the target track, and the dampers are built to those parameters. For a Racing Spec Odyssey running on a known UK circuit, that means the damper can be specified against the actual car, not against a generic RA1-RA5.

Fitment for the Honda Odyssey (1995-1999)

Fits the first-generation Honda Odyssey RA1 through RA5 chassis with the wishbone-style front suspension, model years 1995 to 1999. Confirm your chassis prefix against the VIN plate before ordering – the wishbone-front RA1-RA5 cars are mechanically distinct from later strut-front Odyssey generations and the coilover hardware is not interchangeable.
