XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Mitsubishi AIRTREK 2001-2005

The Airtrek’s MT05 platform was designed around practicality and urban versatility, and the factory suspension tune reflects those priorities: a high ride height and soft damping calibrated to keep things comfortable rather than composed. Corner hard and that elevated centre of gravity becomes the central problem, the body leaning on its outside tyres with the kind of roll that blunts steering response and limits how confidently you can commit on a fast A-road. The Street Advanced coilover addresses the root cause rather than the symptoms.

Lowering the ride height pulls that mass closer to the road where it belongs, and with 720 damping adjustment positions in the range, you have the granularity to run it soft enough for daily commuting while stiffening up for weekends when the roads clear. For Airtrek Turbo owners running the 4G63T under the bonnet, the improvement in front-end composure under hard acceleration is immediate – the nose sits flatter, the power translates into forward momentum rather than body lean.

What this coilover does for your 2001-2005 Mitsubishi AIRTREK

Cutting the ride height on the MT05 platform achieves two things at once: it reduces the body roll arc that the standard suspension permits, and it shortens the suspension travel that contributes to the slow, imprecise steering feel that crossover platforms inherit by design. The 720-way damping range is the central feature here – it offers an unusually fine band of adjustment rather than a handful of preset click positions, so you can work across the full comfort-to-performance spectrum in a single product. Set it soft for the school run; add firmness for a mountain road weekend. An adjustable spring perch means you set the exact drop you want rather than accepting whatever a fixed-rate kit delivers. For drivers who want to control their car’s behaviour and actively manage their speed, this specification moves the Airtrek decisively in the right direction.

About the Street Advanced coilover

The Street Advanced is XYZ Racing’s most widely adopted coilover line, the result of a sustained development programme by their engineering team and validated through international racing programmes before being released for road use. It sits in the XYZ catalogue as the specification built for normal road driving and track day outings – not an awkward compromise between the two, but a single calibrated answer to both. The defining feature is the 720-way damping adjustment, which compresses an unusually wide performance envelope into one continuously adjustable unit, allowing precise tuning across far more positions than a typical adjustable damper offers. Construction is fully height-adjustable with a spring perch that moves independently of the damping setup, so ride height and damping stiffness can be set without one dictating the other. The result is a product that genuinely suits drivers who prioritise speed and dynamic control in their daily driving.
