XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Ferrari CALIFORNIA (Both front and rear top mount are 4 holes) 2008-2014

The Ferrari California sits in an awkward place in the Maranello back catalogue. It is the front-mid-engined GT that bridged the F430 and the 458, with the folding hard top adding mass high in the body and the seven-speed dual-clutch sending drive rearward through a transaxle. The factory damping was tuned for cross-continent GT work, which means the standard car floats on its springs once the road tightens and the nose runs wide of where a 4.3-litre V8 wants to point it.

The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover is built for the California owner who wants the chassis to behave like the engine deserves – sharper turn-in, a flatter platform under load, and a ride height the body lines were always crying out for – without surrendering the long-distance composure these cars were bought for.

What this coilover does for your 2008-2014 Ferrari California

Ride height is fully adjustable, which finally lets you close the wheel-arch gap that makes a standard California look apologetic on factory rubber. The 36-way damping dial covers the full spread from a Sunday A-road to a weekend at Donington, so the same set can be opened up for a Welsh B-road and tightened down before a track session. You feel the body settle earlier on the dampers when you trail the brakes into a fast third-gear corner, and the transition from braking to cornering load stops being the lurching event it is on the OE setup. With the platform held flatter, the front tyres carry their contact patch through the apex instead of scrubbing off speed in protest.

About the Super Sport coilover

Super Sport is XYZ Racing’s dual-purpose damper, engineered to remove the discomfort that comes with bumps and rough surfaces while still giving the driver real control over the chassis. Ride height adjustment is built in, and the 36-way damping range is the headline spec – one click finer than fast road, one click coarser than full track, repeated across the working range of the damper. The result is a single setup that can be configured for daily driving on poor UK surfaces and re-tuned for a weekend race or track day without changing hardware. Construction is monotube, the body matched to the loads of a heavy GT car rather than borrowed wholesale from a hot hatch part bin.

Fitment for the Ferrari California (2008-2014)

This kit is built for the California variant with four-hole top mounts at both front and rear – XYZ chassis code FE04 – covering the full 2008 to 2014 production run before the California T arrived. Confirm your top-mount bolt pattern before ordering; the four-hole mount is the differentiator on this fitment.
