XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Subaru XV GT 4WD 2017-2026

The XV GT 4WD’s crossover-raised ride height and soft factory spring rates were tuned for ground clearance and gravel-track comfort, not for holding a line through a fast direction change – the extra ride height over the Impreza platform it shares means more body roll under hard cornering than the sedan ever has to deal with. XYZ Racing’s Super Sport coilover kit for this SU21-chassis XV addresses that trade-off directly, giving you the ride height adjustment to bring the centre of gravity back down and tighter control of that roll without giving up the comfort that makes the XV usable every day.

For owners who use their XV GT for fast-road driving with the occasional track day, this Super Sport kit sits between a daily-driver spring-and-shock swap and a dedicated track setup: 36-way damping and adjustable ride height let you set the car up for a motorway commute on Friday and a circuit session on Saturday morning without changing a single part.

What this coilover does for your 2017-2026 Subaru XV GT 4WD

Lowering the XV’s ride height even modestly cuts the roll couple through the AWD chassis’s centre section, so the four-wheel-drive system can put power down mid-corner instead of fighting body movement first. The 36-way damping adjustment means compression and rebound can be firmed up for a track session, then backed off for the school run or a long motorway trip, without swapping hardware. Adjustable ride height also lets you correct for the load of a full weekend track bag or a car full of passengers, keeping geometry consistent whether the XV is running light or loaded. On the SU21 chassis’s factory-soft front end, tightening damper response sharpens turn-in and cuts the nose-dive under braking that the stock shocks allow.

About the Super Sport coilover

XYZ Racing built the Super Sport damper to solve the usual complaint with stiffer coilover kits: comfort disappears the moment you add control. The damper carries 36 discrete damping positions, giving compression and rebound behaviour enough range to soften impacts from broken tarmac and expansion joints while still tightening things up once the road opens out. Ride height is independently adjustable at each corner, which lets you correct rake or compensate for the extra weight the AWD drivetrain and running gear add to the XV over a two-wheel-drive equivalent. XYZ positions the Super Sport as the kit for owners who want one set of dampers to cover a daily commute and a weekend circuit outing, rather than running two separate suspension setups for road and track.
