XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Honda TL UA4-UA5 1999-2003

The UA4/UA5 Honda TL is a quietly capable saloon that hides a 3.2-litre J32 V6 over the front axle, and that nose weight is the first thing you feel when you push one – the front tucks under load, the rear goes light over crests, and the soft factory dampers run out of vertical travel long before the chassis runs out of grip. The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover is built for owners who want to dial that out without turning a comfortable executive coupe into something undriveable on a Tuesday morning.

This is the fast-road and weekend track spec in the XYZ Racing line: 36-way damping adjustment, full ride-height adjustment on the body, and a damper tune that sits deliberately between road compliance and circuit body control.

What this coilover does for your 1999-2003 Honda TL UA4-UA5

Drop the ride height a sensible 25-35mm and the J32-heavy nose stops diving so aggressively into trail-braking, which is where the standard car loses its composure first. The 36-way damping is the part most owners feel immediately – wind it back for the M25 commute and the chassis still soaks up motorway expansion joints; wind it forward for a Sunday at Bedford and the front end stays flat enough to actually load the outside tyre. Body control through quick direction changes – the kind a 1,600kg front-driver fights hardest – is the bigger win than the visual stance drop. The Super Sport tune also lets you balance a TL away from its factory understeer bias without going to coilovers that beat you up on broken B-roads.

About the Super Sport coilover

XYZ Racing build the Super Sport around a damper specifically aimed at eliminating the harshness you get from cheaper height-only coilovers over rough surfaces and broken Tarmac. The 36 damping steps work in combination with ride-height adjustment on the lower bracket, so corner weight and stance are independent of damping stiffness – you set the height you want, then tune compliance separately. The result is a damper the vendor positions as genuinely suitable for both weekend competition use and daily driving, rather than a single-purpose track item. Construction is in line with the rest of the XYZ Racing road-going range, with the spec sheet pointing at a kit that adapts to varied UK road surfaces rather than demanding billiard-table Tarmac.
