XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Nissan ALTIMA U13 1993-1997

The U13 Altima arrives from the factory tuned for commuter compliance – soft spring rates, generous suspension travel, and a setup that absorbs road noise at the cost of communicating almost nothing about what the front axle is actually doing. The KA24DE’s weight distribution means the front end carries a meaningful proportion of the car’s mass, and that nose-heavy bias makes itself felt as understeer when the road tightens up. The Street Advanced coilover kit addresses those characteristics with substance.

With continuous ride height adjustment and 720 damping settings, there is genuine latitude to transform how the U13 Altima behaves – from a more composed fast-road car to something capable of holding its own at a trackday – without surrendering the daily usability that makes this generation a sensible starting point for a build.

What this coilover does for your 1993-1997 Nissan ALTIMA U13

Installing the Street Advanced on the U13 resets the handling baseline from its factory-soft configuration towards something you can actually feel working. Lower ride height reduces the body roll that the long-travel original suspension allows, and the firmer spring rates distribute cornering load more evenly across the front axle, reducing the push that makes standard U13s understeer away from apexes. The 720-way damping range lets you calibrate the kit’s behaviour to your exact road conditions – softer settings preserve compliance on rougher surfaces, while firmer settings sharpen the front end’s response when the road quality improves. On a sustained fast-road run or a circuit session, the difference in chassis communication versus the factory suspension is considerable.

About the Street Advanced coilover

The Street Advanced is XYZ Racing’s most extensively developed product line, refined over years by their in-house engineering team and validated through testing at circuits worldwide. The design targets the dual-use brief of road driving and track day use, which is reflected in its 720 damping adjustment steps – a range calibrated to cover everything from the gentler compliance needed for daily use on imperfect surfaces to the firm, body-roll-resistant damping a circuit session demands. That breadth of adjustment stems directly from XYZ’s competition background; data fed back from race testing shaped the Street Advanced’s specification, and the resulting damper carries more capability than its street-car positioning might suggest. It is not a compromised race unit softened for road use, nor a comfort coilover with a token firm setting – it occupies the functional middle ground between the two, built for drivers who want to properly explore their car’s limits.

Fitment for the Nissan ALTIMA U13 (1993-1997)

This kit is built for the U13 Altima, covering the generation produced from 1993 through to 1997. The chassis code U13 spans the Altima’s first-generation range, including the sedan bodystyle produced across those model years. Confirm the chassis code on your car before ordering – the U13 designation does not carry forward to later Altima generations, which use different suspension geometry and require different kits.
