XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Chrysler NEON 1994-2000

The first-generation Chrysler NEON arrived with a willing 2.0-litre four and a chassis that British tuners quietly rated higher than the marketing ever did – a light front-drive saloon with surprisingly direct steering and a body shell that responds well to proper damping. What it shipped with from the factory was soft, vague, and prone to roll on turn-in. The Street Advanced coilover is the part that finally gives the NEON the body control its chassis always deserved.

For owners keeping a 1994-2000 NEON alive in 2026 – whether it is a saloon being daily-driven, an ACR project, or a weekend coupe – the appeal is straightforward. You get height adjustment to kill the factory wheel-arch gap, damping you can actually tune, and a ride that holds together over British B-roads rather than crashing into every expansion joint.

What this coilover does for your 1994-2000 Chrysler NEON

The 720-way damping range is the headline figure, and it matters because the NEON’s relatively light kerb weight reacts quickly to small damper changes. Wind the adjusters towards firm and the nose stops diving under braking into a roundabout, the front end takes a set, and trail-braking becomes a tool rather than a problem. Wind them back towards comfort and the car settles into a long-motorway gait that the original struts lost the day they passed 50,000 miles. Ride height adjustment lets you drop the body without bottoming the bump stops, which is the difference between a stanced-looking NEON that drives badly and one that actually corners. Spring and damper working together means less mid-corner squirm from the soft front subframe bushings the platform is known for.

About the Street Advanced coilover

The Street Advanced is XYZ Racing’s most popular series and the one developed for owners who want one set of suspension for daily use and the occasional track day. It carries 720 damping adjustment positions through a single knob at the top of each unit, which keeps tuning honest – you make a change, you feel it, you move on. Construction is the same monotube architecture XYZ uses across its catalogue, refined over years of testing with the firm’s race programmes worldwide before reaching production. The series is built specifically for normal road use combined with occasional circuit work, so spring rates are chosen to live with potholes rather than punish you on the way to the venue. It is the kit XYZ point to when a customer wants speed and control without giving up the ability to drive home afterwards.
