Nitron Audi RS3 (8V) R1 Coilover Suspension Kit
Transform your Audi RS3 (8V) with the Nitron R1 Coilover Suspension Kit. This adjustable system offers precise control and confident handling for both daily driving and the track. Built to enhance your driving experience, it combines quality construction with practical features.
Key Features
- Single damping adjuster: One knob controls overall firmness for road or track use.
- Ride height adjustment: Tailor the stance and clearance of your car.
- Improved body control: Reduced roll and pitch without harshness.
- Consistent performance: Fade-resistant damping ensures stability on longer drives.
- Hand-built quality: Serviceable components provide long-term value.
How It Improves Your Drive
The R1 kit delivers tight, composed handling with enhanced grip and stability through corners. You’ll notice improved steering response, making your car easier to place on winding roads and more stable on the track. While the ride will be firmer compared to stock, especially over sharp bumps, the increased control makes it worthwhile.
Design and Build
Each damper is hand-built with precision components to maintain low friction and high responsiveness. The high-quality bodies and hardware resist corrosion, ensuring durability. The kit shares a core design with Nitron’s higher-tier race units, delivering proven reliability without unnecessary complexity.
Fitment and Options
This kit is specifically designed for the Audi RS3 (8V). Depending on the model and setup, the rear may come as a coilover or a separate spring and damper arrangement. Spring rates are optimised for a blend of fast road and mixed road-track use.
If your Audi RS3 features Magnetic Ride, additional modules or coding may be required to prevent dashboard warnings. Please use our vehicle lookup tool to confirm fitment or check the “Vehicle Fitment” tab for specific details.
What You Get
The kit includes front and rear dampers with matched springs, as well as all necessary mounting hardware provided by Nitron. Some applications may reuse original top mounts, while optional uprated mounts are available where suitable.

Setup Tips

Type approval ensures that an aftermarket component will reach, or exceed the performance standard of the corresponding OE part.
Type-approval then, is a certain guarantee that an end user will receive a product of OE equivalent performance attributes.
Products on the Progressive Parts website that meet this approval will be clearly marked or labelled EC or ECE approved.
