Transform the handling of your Chevrolet Corvette C3 (1968–1982) with the Nitron R1 Suspension Kit—a 2-way adjustable coilover system that brings modern damping precision to this American icon. Developed for fast-road driving, classic touring, and occasional track use, the R1 sharpens your C3’s road manners without compromising its vintage character.

Whether you’re restoring a big-block classic or building a performance restomod, the R1 unlocks your Corvette’s full potential while retaining its raw appeal.

Key Features & Benefits:

2-Way Damping Adjustment

Independently adjust rebound and compression damping to fine-tune ride comfort and chassis control for the road or occasional circuit driving.

Fast-Road Capability, Classic Feel

Flatter cornering, sharper response, and greater stability—without losing the analogue charm and feedback that makes the C3 legendary.

Race-Bred, Road-Tuned Damping

Using Nitron’s proven motorsport internals, the R1 offers smooth, consistent damping with real-world refinement.

Lightweight, Durable Construction

Crafted from hard-anodised aluminium to reduce unsprung weight and ensure long-term corrosion resistance.

Direct Fit for C3 Corvette

Designed to integrate with the C3 chassis from 1968–1982. No modifications required for most applications—retains factory geometry and mounting points.
