XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally Coilovers — Toyota AE86 (Fr Welding Modified Rear Integrated) 1983-1987

The AE86’s solid rear axle and near-even weight distribution reward a driver who can manage weight transfer stage by stage, which is exactly the discipline tarmac rally demands. On sealed surfaces that are rarely as smooth as they look, the standard setup on a Corolla Levin or Sprinter Trueno starts to feel vague under compression, letting the live axle skip rather than track true through a fast direction change.

The XYZ Racing Tarmac Rally coilover replaces that vagueness with damping calibrated specifically for stage driving: absorbing the hit from broken tarmac and blind crests without passing the shock straight into the body, while keeping the rear axle located and the tyres loaded consistently through the corner.

What this coilover does for your 1983-1987 Toyota AE86 (Fr Welding Modified Rr Integrated)

Fitted to a 1983-1987 AE86, this kit changes how the car settles after a hit. Instead of the rear axle skipping across broken surfaces, the damping keeps the tyre’s contact patch working, so the traction found exiting a hairpin on a stage stays available rather than getting interrupted by axle hop. The stiffer, stage-tuned spring and damper combination also cuts body roll into fast direction changes, so the 4A-GE’s power reaches the tarmac instead of getting soaked up by chassis movement. Ride height adjustment lets you set stance and geometry to suit a specific stage, or a mixed tarmac-and-gravel event.

About the Tarmac Rally coilover

XYZ Racing built the Tarmac Rally line around one specific problem: sealed-stage surfaces are rarely as smooth as they look, and a standard road-spec damper struggles with the repeated, unpredictable impacts of broken pavement, patched sections and camber changes. The valving in this coilover is set to absorb those big hits without passing the jolt straight into the chassis, which keeps the tyre’s contact patch doing its job rather than skipping across the surface. That control is what keeps the car settled and stable mid-stage, and it’s what turns into more usable traction out of compressions and into braking zones. The damping and spring settings come directly from XYZ’s own tarmac rally racing programme, carried over from stage-tested calibration rather than derived from road-going assumptions.

Fitment for the Toyota AE86 (Fr Welding Modified Rr Integrated) (1983-1987)

This kit is built for the Toyota AE86, sold as the Corolla Levin and Sprinter Trueno, across the 1983 to 1987 production run, chassis code TO02. Front fitment requires welding modification at the strut mounting points; the rear kit is a direct, integrated fit to the AE86’s existing axle mounting points, with no additional cutting or fabrication needed there.
