XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Subaru IMPREZA GDA/GDB STI A-D/GGA/GGB (PCD:5 X 100) 2WD/4WD 2000-2007

The GD-generation Impreza carries its EJ turbo boxer ahead of the front axle, and on factory dampers that mass shows up as lazy turn-in and a nose that washes wide the moment you load it mid-corner. This XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover for the Subaru Impreza GDA/GDB saloon and GGA/GGB wagon is built to take that slack out of the chassis without turning a daily-driven STI into a track-only cage-rattler.

This is the fast-road and weekend-track spec in the XYZ range. Thirty-six clicks of damping plus independent ride-height adjustment let you settle the front end, calm the body roll these cars are known for from standard, and still ride out a broken B-road without loosening your fillings.

What this coilover does for your 2000-2007 Subaru Impreza

You feel it first in the front axle. Wind the 36-way adjusters toward firm and the GD stops diving under braking into a turn, so the symmetrical AWD can put power down on corner exit instead of scrabbling for grip through a rolling chassis. Drop the ride height a touch and the centre of gravity comes with it, sharpening the turn-in that the soft factory setup blunts. Back the clicks off for a motorway run and the Super Sport recovers enough compliance to live with speed bumps and potholes. For STI owners running more boost, the added body control also keeps the rear multilink working predictably as the centre diff shuffles torque rearward.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport sits in the XYZ Racing range as the all-rounder, engineered to wipe out the harshness most owners associate with lowering a car. Each damper carries 36 stages of adjustment, so you can map the response from a compliant daily setting to a firmer weekend-track tune without ever touching a spring. Ride height is independently adjustable on the body, letting you set stance and corner balance separately from damper feel. The design brief was a damper that shrugs off bumps and rough surfaces rather than transmitting every ridge into the cabin, which is exactly what a UK-roaded Impreza wants. XYZ specify it for both weekend competition and daily use, and that dual remit is the whole point of the Super Sport over a stiffer, single-purpose coilover.
