XYZ Racing Pro Rally Coilovers — Chevrolet CORVETTE C5/C6 (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 1997-2013

The C5 and C6 Corvette were never really built with loose surfaces in mind. The transverse leaf-spring rear, the long wheelbase, and the LS-powered weight bias all point at smooth tarmac – which is exactly why a Pro Rally conversion on a CH08-C chassis is such a specific, deliberate build. This XYZ Racing Pro Rally coilover kit replaces both the factory dampers and the OE Magnetic Selective Ride Control hardware, with the electronic-damping cancellation kit included so the dash doesn’t light up the moment you turn the key.

It is aimed squarely at the Corvette owners running stage rallies, gravel sprints and snow events between 1997 and 2013 – people who have already accepted that a C5 or C6 used like this needs proper rally-spec suspension, not a road coilover with stiffer springs.

What this coilover does for your 1997-2013 Chevrolet Corvette CORVETTE C5/C6 (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping)

On a Corvette of this generation, the biggest gain is travel and damper authority over broken surfaces. Pro Rally damping is tuned for high-frequency hits – kerb strikes, ruts, compressions out of jumps – so the chassis stays planted instead of skipping wide mid-corner. The cancellation kit removes the factory Magnetic Ride control loop cleanly, which means no dashboard fault codes and no ghost inputs from a sensor that was never designed to read rally-spec damper movement.

You feel it in the front end first: the nose settles faster after a bump, and the LS’s mass stops loading the outside-front tyre on turn-in. On gravel and snow that translates directly to a car you can place on the throttle rather than one you’re constantly catching.

About the Pro Rally coilover

The Pro Rally sits at the competition end of the XYZ Racing range and is offered in two install philosophies: a direct-fit version that bolts to the original chassis (the amateur-spec route), and a professional version intended to go in after the bodyshell has been modified to suit a full rally build. Both share the same core damper engineering, with valving and spring rates chosen for gravel and snow rather than tarmac.

Construction is built around the demands of a stage car – repeated heat cycles, big single hits, and the kind of cross-axle loading you only see off-road. For the C5/C6 specifically, the kit ships with the electronic damping cancellation hardware as standard so the loom from the factory MSRC system can be bypassed without aftermarket workarounds.

Fitment for the Chevrolet CORVETTE C5/C6 (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) (1997-2013)

This kit covers the CH08-C chassis designation from 1997 through to 2013, which spans the C5 and C6 production runs. The included cancellation kit is the important detail – it is specific to cars originally fitted with Magnetic Selective Ride Control. Confirm your car has MSRC before ordering; non-MSRC cars do not need the cancellation hardware.
