Mitsubishi ECLIPSE 2006-2012 — Coilovers

The fourth-generation Eclipse walked away from the turbocharged all-wheel-drive formula of the DSM years and arrived as a front-driven, nose-heavy GT coupe (chassis MT16). On the GT, the 3.8-litre V6 sits ahead of the front axle line, and the factory set-up leans soft – generous body roll, lazy turn-in, and torque steer that tugs at the wheel when you load the front tyres. This XYZ Racing coilover kit for the Mitsubishi Eclipse exists to tighten all of that up.

Swapping the standard struts for a height- and damper-adjustable platform lets you take weight off the nose, flatten the cornering attitude, and decide for yourself how the car behaves between motorway miles and a circuit session. Eight build specs sit under this listing – from Street Advanced and Super Sport for fast-road use to Top Sport and Circuit Master for serious track work – so the 2006-2012 Eclipse can be set up for the way you actually drive it.

What this coilover kit does for your 2006-2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse

Drop the ride height and the big front-drive coupe stops looming over its arches; lower the centre of gravity and the lean that defines the standard car settles right down. Adjustable damping lets you firm up the front to blunt the Eclipse’s natural push and free up turn-in, while keeping enough compliance that the V6 GT still works as a daily. Corner-balanced spring rates hold the body flatter under braking, so the nose stays settled instead of diving as you load the front discs. The result is a heavy coupe that finally changes direction when you ask it to, with torque steer easier to manage because the front geometry is no longer fighting a sagging ride height.

About the XYZ Racing coilover range

Each kit in this range pairs a coilover strut with adjustable spring seats, so ride height is set mechanically rather than by spacers or cut springs. Damping adjustment lets you tune bump and rebound to suit road, track, drift or rally surfaces, and the platform is built to take repeated heat without fading. The eight specs cover distinct jobs: Super Sport and Street Advanced for road-biased setups, Top Sport, Racing Spec and Circuit Master for circuit work, Drift Spec for angle and slide control, and Tarmac Rally and Gravel Rally for loose and broken surfaces. Picking the right spec for the Mitsubishi Eclipse comes down to where the car spends its time, not to a single one-size tune.

Fitment for the Mitsubishi Eclipse (2006-2012)

This kit is built for the fourth-generation Mitsubishi Eclipse, chassis code MT16, covering the 2006 to 2012 model years. It fits the front-wheel-drive coupe across that span, including the four-cylinder and 3.8-litre V6 GT cars running the standard strut layout.
