Nitron Audi RS3 (8V) R3 Coilover Suspension Kit
Take precise control of your Audi RS3 (8V) with the Nitron R3 Coilover Suspension Kit. Designed for high performance on both the road and the track, this kit offers excellent adjustability, enhanced body control, and consistent performance whether you’re racing or driving on everyday roads.
Key Features
- 3-way damping control: Adjust rebound, low-speed compression, and high-speed compression for a customised ride.
- Ride height adjustment: Tailor the car’s stance and optimise balance through corner-weighting.
- Improved handling: Experience flatter cornering with reduced roll, squat, and dive.
- Durable build: Lightweight and corrosion-resistant materials ensure long-lasting use.
How It Works
The R3 suspension kit provides independent control over three damping circuits:
- Rebound: Controls how quickly the spring returns after a bump, affecting the overall comfort.
- Low-speed compression: Influences body movement such as rolling and pitching when cornering.
- High-speed compression: Manages sudden shocks from bumps and kerbs, helping maintain control.
This combination allows you to fine-tune comfort and grip based on road conditions or track setups. The adjustable ride height lets you set your preferred stance and improve weight distribution for better handling.
What You Will Feel
After installing the Nitron R3 Coilover Kit, expect:
- Sharper turn-in and better mid-corner support
- More confident braking and direct steering response
- A firmer ride quality compared to stock, yet still compliant for daily use with the right settings
Fitment
This kit is specifically designed for the Audi RS3 (8V) platform. It’s important to note that additional parts or coding might be necessary if your vehicle has Audi Magnetic Ride, to prevent dashboard warnings. To ensure proper fitment, please use our vehicle lookup tool or check the “Vehicle Fitment” tab for complete details.
What’s Included
The kit includes:
- Front and rear dampers with matched springs
- Required hardware for installation
Some models may reuse original top mounts, while performance mounts may be available for an upgrade.

Setup Tips
After installation, perform a full four-wheel alignment. Start with all three damping circuits set to the middle. Make adjustments one at a time in small increments. On wet or uneven roads, reducing compression a few clicks can help maintain tyre contact with the surface. For track use, keep a record of your settings to return to a known baseline.

For emissions components this encompasses noise, emissions and balanced back pressure, which have a strong influence on maintaining engine performance (power), and fuel efficiency. 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.
