Product Details

Our KW V3 Racing suspension is your entry into our motorsport program with its top-notch damper technology. The KW V3 is independently adjustable in the low-speed forces of the compression and rebound damping. Compared to a KW V3 Clubsport coilover suspension kit, the KW V3 does not have a parts certificate and its entire suspension design is developed exclusively for track day and circuit use only. Do you want to break later and drive faster?

The KW V3 suspension is a vehicle-specific motorsport application and is available in different versions for a wide range of vehicles. Numerous KW motorsport customers opt for a KW V3 when participating in various circuit events such as the Rundstrecken-Challenge Nürburgring e.V. or track days. The entire design of the KW V3 is a vehicle-specific development for the Nürburgring Nordschleife. All parameters such as axle geometry, ground clearance, damping dimension, spring rates, spring travel, and wheel loads are tailor-made for the Green Hell.

Depending on the vehicle, the KW V3 is made with shock bodies of high-strength aluminum, galvanized steel or MacPherson struts directly in Fichtenberg after order placement. The damper characteristics curves can be set separately with twelve clicks in the low-speed compression stage and with 16 clicks in the low-speed rebound stage. Enabling a comprehensive setup range, each click on the setup enables your preferred optimized setting.
