XYZ Racing Pro Rally Coilovers — Maserati GHIBLI M157 (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2013-2026

The Ghibli M157 was sold on the promise of its Skyhook adaptive damping, and for the first few years that system did the job. A decade in, the reality for most owners is failing solenoids, dashboard warnings, and replacement shock prices that read like a deposit on another car. The XYZ Racing Pro Rally coilover sidesteps that entire conversation. It replaces the OEM electronic struts outright, and the cancellation kit included in this part number tells the Ghibli’s chassis module the dampers are still there – no permanent fault light, no limp-home behaviour.

Pro Rally is the loose-surface end of the XYZ range, and on a 1.8-tonne rear-drive Maserati saloon that matters less for actual rallying and more for what it brings to badly surfaced UK B-roads. Long-stroke damping, high oil capacity, and a softer baseline than the Circuit Master variants – the Ghibli stays composed over broken tarmac instead of fighting it.

What this coilover does for your 2013-2026 Maserati GHIBLI M157 (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping)

Out goes the Skyhook hardware and its diagnostic dependency; in comes a fully mechanical, fully serviceable coilover with 30-way damping adjustment per corner. Ride height is set on lower spring perches, so you can drop the Ghibli without preloading the springs – important on a long-wheelbase saloon where a botched ride height kills the rear axle’s compliance. The 30-click adjuster lets you run a road setting for daily use and turn the knobs harder for weekend driving without needing the laptop or the dealer-only software the OEM dampers demand. Spring rates are chosen for the Ghibli’s weight bias, not lifted off a generic catalogue page.

About the Pro Rally coilover

Pro Rally uses XYZ Racing’s monotube construction with a larger piston and increased oil volume over the road-biased Super Sport range, which is what gives it the heat tolerance for sustained, repeated compression cycles. The damper body is pillow-ball mounted at the top to sharpen steering response, and the lower mount uses the factory bushing geometry so subframe alignment stays correct. Springs are matched to the chassis – higher rates than the OEM Skyhook setup but a long enough stroke to absorb the kind of mid-corner bump that upsets a saloon at speed. The cancellation module is wired into the OEM harness on installation and reports back to the suspension ECU as if the original dampers are still in circuit. No coding, no dealer trip, no warning lights.

Fitment for the Maserati GHIBLI M157 (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) (2013-2026)

This kit is built for the M157 Ghibli platform, chassis code MS01-C, covering the 2013 through 2026 model years. The cancellation kit variant is specifically for cars originally fitted with Maserati’s Skyhook electronic damping. If your Ghibli has passive dampers from the factory, you want the non-cancellation MS01 part number instead.
