XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Mitsubishi EVO4-6 4WD 1997-2001

The MT18-generation Evo’s 4WD system pushes weight and mechanical grip demands that a soft factory setup can’t keep pace with, especially once the turbo starts pulling hard through a corner exit. Street Advanced is XYZ Racing’s answer for owners who want that grip properly supported without turning the car into a track-only tool.

This is a coilover built for road use with track days folded in, not the other way round. On an Evo 4-6, that balance matters: you still need a car that rides properly on UK B-roads five days a week.

What this coilover does for your 1997-2001 Mitsubishi EVO4-6 4WD

With 720 damping adjusting ways on tap, you can set the front and rear independently to suit the Evo’s nose-heavy 4WD weight distribution, then trim it again once you’ve felt how the car sits under power. Firming the front helps control the dive and understeer that turbocharged 4WD platforms are prone to under trail-braking, while a touch more support at the rear keeps the back axle settled as torque comes through the centre diff. The adjustment range covers everything from a comfortable daily ride to a noticeably tauter setup for a track day, so you’re not locked into one compromise setting. Ride height comes down with it too, dropping the centre of gravity on a chassis that came from the factory already carrying rally-bred hardware underneath.

About the Street Advanced coilover

Street Advanced sits in XYZ Racing’s range as the volume model, refined over several years of development and proven across international racing before being adapted for road-going cars. It’s built for exactly two use cases: normal road driving and track days, without asking the owner to choose between them. The 720-way damping adjustment is the headline spec, giving a genuinely wide window between comfort and control rather than a token handful of clicks. Construction follows XYZ’s usual coilover format, with adjustable spring perches for ride height and damper units sized to suit the Evo’s weight and power output. It’s aimed squarely at drivers who want their car to go quicker without giving up the ability to drive it there and back.
