XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Toyota ARISTO JZS161 1997-2004

The JZS161 Aristo hides a 2JZ-GTE twin-turbo under the bonnet of a soft, comfort-tuned executive saloon, and that mismatch is exactly what the XYZ Racing Street Advanced coilover sets out to resolve. Toyota built this car to waft, with long-travel springs and generous body roll that mask the weight of the iron-block straight-six sitting over the front axle.

The Street Advanced is the road-biased coilover in the XYZ range, giving you ride-height and damping control without turning a heavy rear-drive saloon into something punishing on a typical UK B-road. For Aristo owners running anything beyond standard boost, it brings the body control the chassis never had from the factory.

What this coilover does for your 1997-2004 Toyota Aristo JZS161

Drop the nose and you immediately cut the front-end float that makes a standard JZS161 feel reluctant to turn in. The 720-way damping adjustment lets you run a softer setting for daily motorway miles, then firm things up for a weekend on a circuit, all without changing a single component. Lowering the centre of gravity tightens the roll that the soft factory springs allow, so the rear axle puts its torque down more cleanly out of a corner. The result is a saloon that finally feels connected to the road rather than insulated from it, with the stance to match.

About the Street Advanced coilover

The Street Advanced has been developed over several years by XYZ’s own engineering team and refined through their international race programme before reaching production. It is built specifically for road use and the occasional track day, rather than as a stripped-out competition setup. The headline feature is 720 individual damping settings, giving you fine control over both compression and rebound from one adjuster. That breadth of adjustment is what makes it the most popular kit in the XYZ catalogue: it suits drivers who want sharper control without giving up everyday usability.
