Mitsubishi COLT CZT 1.5 TURBO 2004-2013 — Coilovers

The soft, comfort-led factory damping was always the thing holding the Z30 Colt back. On the CZT, with a turbocharged 4G15 stuffed into a sub-1100kg shell, the standard struts let the nose pitch and the body lean long before the chassis runs out of grip. The XYZ Racing coilover range for the Mitsubishi COLT CZT 1.5 Turbo swaps that vague setup for height-adjustable, damping-adjustable struts that give the car the body control its little engine has always deserved.

The CZT punches hard from low revs for such a small hatch, and the standard car wastes a chunk of that shove squatting and scrabbling out of slow corners. These coilovers let you drop the ride height, firm up the spring and damper rates, and get the front axle planted so the Ralliart finally drives like the pocket weapon it was meant to be.

What this coilover does for your 2004-2013 Mitsubishi COLT CZT 1.5 TURBO

Lowering the CZT on a proper coilover pulls the centre of gravity down and takes the float out of the way the short-wheelbase Colt reacts to mid-corner bumps. Stiffer, adjustable damping keeps the body flat through quick direction changes, so the front tyres stay loaded and the car turns in cleanly instead of washing wide. Better control of weight transfer also helps the front axle deal with the 4G15 turbo’s torque, calming the tug through the wheel as boost arrives. You set the ride height to suit fast-road or circuit use, then tune the damping to match your tyres and the surfaces you actually drive on.

About the XYZ Racing coilover range

Each XYZ Racing coilover is a full strut assembly, not a lowering spring on a tired damper, so you replace the entire corner with a unit built for repeated hard use. Ride height is set independently of spring preload, which means you can sit the CZT low without sacrificing travel or hammering the bump stops. Damping is adjustable so the same hardware suits a road-biased setup or a stiffer track configuration. The range spans Super Sport and Top Sport for fast-road and track-day work, Racing Spec and Circuit Master for harder circuit use, plus Tarmac Rally and Drift Spec for more specialised disciplines, so you choose the spring and damper character to suit how you run the car.
