AUDI A3 8V - Street R1 Dynaparts coilovers (12-20)

The question comes up often on VW and Honda forums: which coilovers let you go from daily driving to the track without swapping the kit each time? The answer is the Street R1 Dynaparts: 1-way 33-position damping adjustment, height adjusted independently of damping, and springs calibrated to handle track corners as well as Tuesday morning roundabouts.

Why choose the Street R1?

The Street R1 is designed for the enthusiast who wants a true coilover kit without sacrificing everyday comfort. Separating height from damping allows the car to be lowered to suit preferences without making the ride unnecessarily harsh. For first track days, the R1 offers a solid base with its separate oil reservoir and 33 damping positions.

To go further, the range includes the Street R2 (2-way independent) for those who want to fine-tune compression and rebound separately, and the Street R3 (3-way) for competition-level control. The Track R2 and R3 versions are reserved for exclusive track use with inverted monotube architecture.
