XYZ Racing Gravel Rally Coilovers — Honda INTEGRA DA6 TWIN CAM (Rear FORK) 1989-1993

The DA6 Integra was Honda’s first proper twin-cam Integra in this body, and its narrow track, light kerb weight and rear fork-arm suspension make it a genuinely entertaining stage car – but the standard damping was built for tidy B-road work, not for a sandstone special or a snow-rutted forest section. The XYZ Racing Gravel Rally coilover is built specifically for that gap: an inverted-tube damper with long stroke and long springs, designed to keep an AC06-chassis Integra planted when the surface stops cooperating.

For a 1989-1993 DA6 being prepped for gravel-stage rally or rallycross, this kit replaces the road-biased OE setup with hardware that expects to be loaded sideways into a compression at speed and then unloaded into a yump. It is one of the few off-the-shelf options that takes the rear fork-arm layout seriously and gives you damping travel to match.

What this coilover does for your 1989-1993 Honda Integra DA6

On loose surfaces the difference is immediate. The long-stroke inverted-tube design lets the wheel follow ruts and stones instead of skipping off them, which is what actually puts power down on gravel – grip on a stage is a function of contact time, not spring rate. The long springs absorb chassis vibration from washboard sections without packing the damper down, so the DA6 keeps its ride height through fast, bumpy fifth-gear straights rather than crashing onto the bumpstops.

Through corners, the kit is built to bear extreme G-force loadings – the spring rates have been signed off by working rally teams rather than guessed from a road-car calculator. For a light front-drive Honda that lives or dies on front-axle bite, that translates to a nose that stays loaded into the apex on a turn-in stab of the brakes, and a rear that rotates predictably on a Scandinavian flick.

About the Gravel Rally coilover

The Gravel Rally is engineered around one job: surviving and performing on the most aggressive road condition in motorsport. XYZ Racing uses an inverted-tube construction, which puts the larger-diameter outer body at the top of the strut where bending loads are highest – important when a wheel takes a hit from a rock at stage pace.

Stroke length is deliberately long so the damper can soak high-speed impacts on bouncy roads without running out of travel, and the springs are matched in length to keep them captive through full droop on jumps and crests. The platform has been developed for sandstone, snow and silt – three very different surface behaviours – rather than tuned for a single rally championship.

Every spring rate in the range has been tested by rally teams in competition, not just bench-validated. That matters on a chassis as specific as the DA6, where the rear fork-arm geometry reacts differently to spring rate changes than a conventional double-wishbone setup.

Fitment for the Honda INTEGRA DA6 TWIN CAM (Rr FORK) (1989-1993)

This kit is built for the AC06-chassis Honda Integra DA6 TWIN CAM with the rear fork suspension layout, model years 1989 to 1993. Confirm your chassis code stamped on the bulkhead matches AC06 before ordering – the DA-series Integras shared a body but ran more than one rear suspension architecture across trims and markets.
