XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Mitsubishi ECLIPSE 1989-1995

The first-generation Eclipse arrived with real performance credentials – 4G63T turbocharged variants pulling hard against FWD geometry, the GSX putting all-wheel drive under that same engine – but factory suspension calibrated for Mitsubishi’s commuter-car brief. Stock dampers flatten out the cabin experience adequately. For a GS-T being driven as the engine’s output demands, or a GSX owner wanting to use the AWD traction the chassis is capable of, they are the weak link.

The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover for the 1989-1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse addresses that gap with adjustable ride height and 36-way damping control – range enough to work across the drivetrain variants and the spectrum from fast-road daily to weekend track use.

What this coilover does for your 1989-1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse

Thirty-six damping positions cover meaningful ground: low settings absorb the road surface imperfections that the MT12’s compliance-tuned stock springs were managing; high settings keep the car’s attitude stable under harder inputs. Reducing ride height lowers the centre of gravity and cuts the body roll leverage that encourages understeer on the FWD variants mid-corner. On the GS-T, improved damping consistency helps manage front-axle load under boost, reducing the snap of torque steer when the 4G63T comes on cam. The GSX benefits similarly at corner entry, where four-wheel traction is only deployable if the chassis is settled enough to use it.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport occupies the space between a dedicated track setup and a straight street coilover, earning that position by not asking you to sacrifice significantly in either direction. XYZ Racing built this damper specifically to remove the harshness that arrives with lowered, stiffer suspension – addressing the discomfort from rough roads and uneven surfaces that makes many performance coilovers impractical for daily use. The 36-way damping range is wide enough to shift meaningfully between a compliant daily calibration and a firm configuration for weekend track sessions on the same hardware. Ride height adjustment operates independently of the damping setting, so stance and spring base can be set without revisiting the compression and rebound positions. It is designed to sustain both track days and everyday miles without choosing between the two.

Fitment for the Mitsubishi ECLIPSE (1989-1995)

This coilover kit is designed for the Mitsubishi Eclipse on the MT12 platform, covering the full 1989-1995 production span. The fitment applies across both FWD and AWD drivetrain configurations in the range. Confirm your trim level and drivetrain variant when specifying to ensure the correct setup.
