Description
Mazda NC MX-5 (06-15) BC Racing DS coilover kit 6/4 kg/mm
The BC Racing DS coilover kit MX-5 NC (part number N-11-DS-DS) is a coilover kit adjustable in height and damping, also simply called a coilover, for the Mazda MX-5 NC, model years 2006 to 2015. The spring rate is 6 kg/mm front and 4 kg/mm rear.
The DS series is BC Racing’s track-focused coilover kit. For the MX-5 NC it is intended for drivers who regularly do a track day and want a car that stays tight and composed, even as the pace goes up.
The digressive piston damps more firmly at low piston speeds, between 0 and 50 mm/s. As a result the body moves less on turn-in, braking and acceleration. You set the damping in 30 clicks and adjust the ride height independently of the spring preload.
Key benefits
- Digressive piston: extra control between 0 and 50 mm/s.
- 30-click damping adjustment: compression and rebound together.
- Ride height independent of spring preload: set via the damper body.
- Spring rate 6/4 kg/mm: the same spring stiffness as the BR kit for the NC.
- Satin chrome damper bodies: the typical finish of the DS series.
- Concave lower lock ring: the ride height stays securely locked.
- Rubber top mounts at the front: rubber or the original mounting at the rear.
- Rebuildable: the dampers can be rebuilt.

Fitting and delivery
This vehicle-specific kit replaces the NC’s original dampers and springs. We advise having it fitted by an experienced mechanic and then having the wheel alignment adjusted, because camber and toe change along with the height. The delivery time is 1 to 2 weeks as long as the manufacturer has stock. If the kit is temporarily sold out at BC Racing, you can still order and we will get back to you with the delivery date.
You can recognise the BC Racing DS series by the satin chrome damper bodies and the digressive piston that damps more firmly between 0 and 50 mm/s.
Why choose this DS coilover kit MX-5 NC?
On track you want an NC to settle quickly after a steering input. The digressive damping of this kit takes care of that, while with 30 clicks you can tune the car for the circuit or for the drive home. You do not need an external reservoir for that.
