Toyota AVALON XLS (TYPE 2) 1994-1999 — Coilovers

The first-generation Avalon left Toyota as a soft, long-wheelbase cruiser built on Camry V20 underpinnings, with damping tuned for hushed motorway miles rather than body control. Its transverse 1MZ-FE V6 sits heavy over the front axle, so the standard car leans on its outside front tyre, floats over crests and pitches forward under braking. XYZ Racing coilovers for the Toyota Avalon XLS (type 2) 1994-1999 hand that tuning decision back to the driver, swapping the factory soft setup for ride height and damping you set yourself.

Because this is a family kit on the TO06 chassis, the same car can run a fast-road Super Sport setup or a firmer Circuit Master spec, depending on whether you want to settle the stance on the street or chase composure on a circuit.

What this coilover does for your 1994-1999 Toyota Avalon XLS

Drop the ride height and you pull the Avalon’s centre of gravity down towards the road, which immediately cuts the body roll that the soft factory springs allow through a fast bend. Firmer, adjustable damping settles the nose under braking and keeps that front-heavy V6 from washing into early understeer when you load the outside front. The result is a big sedan that changes direction with intent instead of wallowing, while you keep enough travel for British B-road surfaces. Height adjustment also lets you set a level stance front to rear, rather than living with the slightly raised factory ride.

About the XYZ Racing coilover range

The XYZ Racing range is a threaded-body coilover system with independent ride-height and damping adjustment, so you set how low the car sits and how firmly it controls movement as two separate decisions. The family spans eight specifications for this chassis: Super Sport and Street Advanced lean towards fast-road use, Top Sport and Circuit Master step up the damping control for track work, Racing Spec targets outright circuit pace, while Tarmac Rally, Gravel Rally and Drift Spec cover the more specialised disciplines. Each shares the same height-adjustable platform but is valved and sprung for its intended use. That spread means you choose the setup that matches how the Avalon will actually be driven, rather than accepting one generic compromise.
