XYZ Racing Gravel Rally Coilovers — Nissan SKYLINE V35 4WD (Modified Rear Integrated) 2003-2006

The V35 Skyline’s ATTESA E-TS 4WD system was built for grip on tarmac, not for a car bottoming out over a rutted gravel special stage every ten seconds. Most owners running this generation on loose surfaces find the standard dampers give up long before the VQ35DE V6’s power delivery does, with the rear end skipping over compressions instead of tracking them.

The Gravel Rally kit is XYZ Racing’s answer to that specific problem: a damper built around long-stroke travel and inverted tube construction so the V35’s weight – a genuine factor on a car this size – stays controlled when it lands. For a 4WD Skyline built to actually be driven on stages rather than admired in a car park, this is the coilover that lets the chassis do its job.

What this coilover does for your 2003-2006 Nissan Skyline V35 4WD (Modified Rr Integrated)

Fitted to the modified rear-integrated mounting on this V35, the long stroke gives the rear axle the vertical travel to follow broken gravel without slamming into the bump stops, which matters on a chassis that already carries more mass over the rear than a typical rally hatch. The long springs work with that stroke rather than against it, absorbing chassis vibration that would otherwise transfer straight through the ATTESA driveline and into the seat. Inverted tube construction keeps the damper resistant to the sandstone, silt and snow that gravel events throw at a shock body, so the valving stays consistent from the first stage to the last. On a car whose factory suspension was tuned around a comfortable road-going GT brief, this is what turns the 4WD system’s traction advantage into something you can actually use when the surface underneath is moving.

About the Gravel Rally coilover

XYZ Racing developed this range specifically for rally and rallycross, where road surfaces swing between sandstone, snow and silt inside a single event and the damper takes more abuse than in any other motorsport discipline. The inverted tube design is a direct response to that variability, giving the shock body more resilience against contamination and impact than a conventional layout. Long stroke and long spring combine to soak up chassis vibration and absorb the aggressive hits that come from high-speed bouncy roads, while still holding composure under the extreme cornering loads a gravel stage generates. Every spring rate offered in this range has been set through testing with a rally racing team rather than picked from a generic chart, so the rates you’re choosing between reflect what actually held up on stage rather than a bench estimate.

Fitment for the Nissan Skyline V35 4WD (Modified Rr Integrated) (2003-2006)

This kit is built for the Nissan Skyline V35 4WD, chassis code NI45, covering the 2003 to 2006 production run with the modified rear-integrated mounting configuration. Confirm your V35 sits within this window and uses the 4WD ATTESA layout before ordering, as the rear geometry differs from the RWD-only Skyline variants.
