XYZ Racing Gravel Rally Coilovers — Nissan SKYLINE V35 (Modified Rear Integrated) 2003-2006

The V35 Skyline’s front-midship layout put more of the drivetrain behind the front axle than any Skyline before it, and on loose surfaces that mass migrates hard under braking and mid-corner load. A gravel stage doesn’t care that this chassis was built for smooth Tokyo-to-Osaka B-roads – ruts, washboard and sudden camber changes hit the dampers dozens of times a second, and a road-biased strut gives up long before the stage does.

XYZ Racing’s Gravel Rally coilover is built specifically for that abuse, not adapted from a track-day part. It’s the spec to fit if this NI44-chassis V35 is going to see a special stage rather than a car park.

What this coilover kit does for your 2003-2006 Nissan Skyline V35

Fit this kit and the V35 stops reacting to gravel and starts absorbing it. The long-stroke damper and matched long spring soak up chassis vibration from washboard and sandstone sections instead of transmitting it straight into the body, keeping the tyre in contact with the ground where a shorter-stroke road setup would skip and lose traction. Under the compression loads of a fast gravel crest or a hard-charging rally corner, the setup is built to bear extreme G-force without the damper backing off or the spring coil-binding. On a chassis already carrying its weight further forward than earlier Skylines, that composure under compression matters as much through fast gravel sweepers as it does over rough straights. The result on this Skyline V35 is a car that holds its line on loose surfaces rather than skating over the top of them.

About the Gravel Rally coilover

This damper is built around an inverted-tube design specifically because rally gravel and rallycross throw the widest range of surface conditions any of XYZ Racing’s coilover ranges has to deal with – sandstone one stage, snow or silt the next. The long stroke and long spring work together to absorb chassis vibration from continuous rough-road impact while still coping with the sudden, aggressive hits a high-speed bouncy gravel section delivers. Spring rate selection isn’t a lab exercise here: every rate offered in this range has been run and validated by an active rally racing team, so the numbers reflect what actually holds up over a stage rather than a theoretical ride-height calculation. It’s a coilover engineered around one job – surviving and performing on the worst road surface in motorsport – rather than a general-purpose damper with a rally label attached.

Fitment for the Nissan Skyline V35 (2003-2006)

This kit is built for the Nissan Skyline V35, chassis code NI44, across the 2003-2006 model years, with a modified rear-suspension integration to accept the Gravel Rally damper and spring assembly at the rear axle. Confirm your V35’s build year falls within this range before ordering, as running gear on this generation changed across its production span.
