XYZ Racing Drag Racing Coilovers — Mitsubishi 380 2005-2007

The Mitsubishi 380 carries its big 3.8-litre V6 ahead of the front axle, and that nose-heavy front-drive layout is exactly what decides a quarter-mile run in this car: get the driven front tyres loaded at launch, or watch the run evaporate in wheelspin. The XYZ Racing Drag Racing coilover for the Mitsubishi 380 is built around that single problem, with damping and ride-height settings aimed at the 0-400 metre sprint rather than the daily commute.

This is the Drag Racing series, not a fast-road compromise. It lets you set the car’s weight balance so the front tyres bite off the line, then keeps the 380 steady as the V6 pulls through the traps.

What this coilover does for your 2005-2007 Mitsubishi 380

Off the line, the payoff is traction. The Drag Racing setting changes how weight loads the driven wheels the instant you launch, forcing more compression into the front tyres so they grip instead of spin – the difference between a clean sixty-foot time and a smoky, wasted start. Through the back half of the run the same setup keeps a heavy front-drive sedan settled and tracking straight as speed climbs, where high-speed stability is never a given. Ride height drops to suit launch geometry, and the adjustable damping lets you tune front-to-rear transfer to your tyre and surface. The result is a 380 that puts its V6 torque into the tarmac instead of the smoke.

About the Drag Racing coilover

The Drag Racing coilover is engineered for one job: the 0-400 metre sprint. XYZ built the series for launch-focused cars across front-wheel-drive, rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive layouts, with a damping philosophy that deliberately manipulates how weight moves between the front and rear axles under hard acceleration. At launch the setting drives extra compression into whichever tyres put the power down – on the front-drive 380 that means loading the front contact patches so they hook up rather than light up. By cutting the moment the driven wheels spend spinning, the kit trims the dead time at the start of a run and gets the car accelerating sooner. As the 380 gathers speed, the same configuration works to keep it planted and stable through the top end. These are single-discipline coilovers, set up for the strip and for drivers chasing repeatable launches, not a do-everything road damper.

Fitment for the Mitsubishi 380 (2005-2007)

These coilovers are cut for the Mitsubishi 380 (2005-2007), the Adelaide-built large sedan, under XYZ’s MT01 chassis fitment. They locate to the standard 380 mounting points for that model run. Confirm your build year falls inside the 2005-2007 window before configuring, and check the spec against your exact 380 below.
