Product Details Product Details
Stage 3 RS is the no-compromise chassis package for drivers who want record-proven pace with reliable street manners. It pays homage to our Red Rocket Model 3 Performance program and brings that philosophy to every Model 3 trim and year. The core is UP Race Pro coilovers with race-valved damping and Swift springs, paired with a complete geometry toolkit and rigid control arms that hold alignment under the highest loads. The result is faster transient response, flatter cornering, longer tire life at speed, and a calm, connected feel over imperfect pavement.
What’s inside
- Height adjustable with independent preload
- 30-step damping adjustment with a very soft street range on the first clicks
- Monotube architecture, high-flow pistons, low-friction seals, progressive bump stops
- Race-valved with Swift linear springs for repeatable grip and clear feedback
- Pillowball front top mounts for precision and camber stability
Front and Rear Sway Bars (2017 – 2023 & 2024+) and End Links
- Street and Track front and rear bars with three-position adjustability per axle
- Sealed, Teflon-lined adjustable end links to eliminate preload at any ride height
Front Upper Control Arms (billet)
- Camber, caster, and toe influence adjustment with maximum upright clearance
- Patented quick-change camber pill to swap from street to track settings in minutes
- Sealed spherical bearings for precision without added NVH
Front Lower Lateral Fore and Compliance Aft Arms
- OEM-spec replacement arms pre-assembled with upgraded spherical bearings and ball joints
- Solves steering slop and bushing deflection, reduces knock and creak, stabilizes geometry under load
Rear Camber, Toe, Traction, and Trailing Arms (billet)
- Full alignment authority to set camber, toe, anti-squat attitude, and wheel control
- 6061-T6 construction with sealed OEM-grade bearings for quiet, durable operation
- Arms ship preset to factory baselines for straightforward installation and alignment
Why it works
- Platform control:Â Bars and dampers reduce roll and pitch so the tire contact patch stays loaded evenly.
- Geometry that holds:Â Rigid arms with sealed spherical bearings keep alignment locked under braking, curb hits, and high lateral load.
- Tunable balance:Â Damping, bar positions, and quick-change front camber let you chase lap time on Friday and drive to brunch on Sunday.
- Real durability:Â Components are tested over thousands of street miles and validated at circuits including Buttonwillow, Laguna Seca, Tsukuba, and Fuji.
Fitment
- Tesla Model 3, 2017 to 2024+
- Trims: RWD, AWD, Long Range, Performance, Standard Range
