XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Changan BENBEN ii 2006-2008

The Benben ii’s short wheelbase and city-car mass make it twitchy over anything but smooth tarmac, and the factory dampers were never built to control a lowered ride height. The Street Advanced coilover for the Changan Benben ii (CN01, 2006-2008) replaces that soft factory tune with 720-way adjustable damping, so you can wind the front and rear towards firm for a spirited backroad and back off again for the daily commute without swapping parts.

This is a road-and-occasional-track spec, not a full race setup. It suits an owner who wants sharper turn-in and less body roll through direct changes of direction, while keeping the compliance needed for imperfect UK B-roads and speed humps.

What this coilover does for your 2006-2008 Changan(长安) Benben ii

Dropping the ride height and fitting a coilover with proper damping control cuts the pitch and dive that the Benben ii’s stock suspension allows under hard braking and quick throttle lifts. The 720-way adjustment range means you can firm up compression to control body roll on a twisty road, then soften rebound so the rear axle doesn’t skip over broken surfaces on the way home. Because the damping is user-adjustable rather than fixed, you can retune the car as tyres, alignment, or driving style change, rather than living with one compromise setting for the car’s life. The lower centre of gravity also sharpens direction changes on a car whose stock setup was tuned for ride comfort ahead of control.

About the Street Advanced coilover

XYZ Racing developed the Street Advanced range over several years of in-house testing, and the brand states it has been proven in worldwide competition before being carried across into this road-focused line. It’s positioned as the most widely fitted product in the XYZ catalogue because it works for both ordinary road use and the occasional track day, rather than being a single-purpose part. The headline spec is the 720-way damping adjustment, giving a wide enough range to move from a comfort-biased road setting to a firmer track-day setting on the same shock. Construction follows XYZ’s coilover format, pairing an adjustable damper with a threaded body so ride height is set independently of spring preload. For a car like the Benben ii, that combination lets an owner correct the factory’s soft, comfort-first tune without needing to buy a second, track-specific set of dampers later.
