Öhlins DFV Road & Track Coilovers for CN9A and CP9A Mitsubishi EVO IV / V / VI

The Öhlins Road and Track coilovers for the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 4, 5, and 6 (1996-2001) give EVO owners a suspension system that works on both ends of the spectrum. During the week, DFV technology and application-specific tuning keep the ride composed and controlled on imperfect roads. At the track, 20+ click adjustable damping and ride height adjustment let the driver dial in exactly what the car and the circuit call for. This is the Öhlins Road and Track system for the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution EVO 4-6; the same suspension technology behind decades of motorsport results, tuned for the driver who uses the car for both.

Dual Flow Valve Technology

The Dual Flow Valve (DFV) is the core of what separates the Öhlins Road and Track system from conventional coilovers. The DFV allows for transformed chassis control while maintaining a refined ride quality that neither the factory setup nor most aftermarket alternatives can match. It manages compression and rebound force curves in a way that keeps the tires loaded and working across a wider range of road and track surfaces, including rough sections and on-track curbing. On the EVO 4-6, where the platform’s AWD chassis rewards precise, planted suspension behavior, the DFV makes a measurable difference in both confidence and lap times.

Damping and Ride Height Adjustment

Every damper in the system is individually adjustable across a range of 20+ clicker settings, covering everything from a comfortable street tune to a firm, track-focused setup without requiring any hardware changes. The front uses an inverted MacPherson monotube strut with a ride height and spring preload adjuster, targeting approximately 15mm of reduction from stock at OE settings. The rear is also ride height adjustable with adjuster hardware included. Front and rear spring rates are 90 N/mm each, with Eibach ERS coil springs fitted at both ends. Spherical bearing top mounts with camber adjustment are included front and rear, and dust boots protect the working cylinder and piston shaft at each corner.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
