Nitron Suspension Guide: RoadSport, R1, R3 & elec-TRON

GSM Performance is an approved Nitron dealer. We can help you choose automotive suspension for road driving, track days and competition, along with the hardware needed for your exact installation.

Browse Nitron suspension or ask us to check a specification. Nitron products are supplied to order: contact us for the current lead time before booking fitting.

Choose a range for your car and how you use it

Range What to compare What to check
RoadSport A road-focused suspension upgrade. The exact kit contents and any original springs or mounts that must be retained.
RoadSport3 Vehicle-specific RoadSport3 packages. The individual application, supplied hardware and any lift-system interface.
R1 Combined compression and rebound adjustment through one control. Road or Track setup where offered, rear layout, mounts and spring specification.
R3 Separate rebound, low-speed compression and high-speed compression adjustment. Reservoir installation, exact hardware, setup requirements and available space.
elec-TRON Electronically controlled suspension in the configurations listed. Factory electronic damping, control hardware, wiring and vehicle-specific compatibility.

R1 or R3?

R1 offers a simpler adjustment process because compression and rebound change together. R3 separates rebound from both high-speed and low-speed compression, giving a knowledgeable driver or suspension specialist more settings to work with.

More adjustment is useful when there is a clear setup goal and a way to test changes. Your tyres, vehicle weight, circuit or road use and willingness to adjust the car all matter. We can help you compare the actual packages available for your vehicle.

Electronic suspension and elec-TRON

An electronically equipped car needs an application-specific plan. Some packages use the original control system; others require a compatible controller. Check the individual product restrictions and whether additional control hardware is included or must be ordered separately.

Damping delete kits and damping controllers do different jobs. A delete kit disables the original damper-control circuit during a suitable conversion; it does not turn a manual damper into an electronically adjustable one.

Front axle lift: check the full specification

Lift-related Nitron packages include different arrangements. A complete standalone FAL system, a kit supplied with lift cylinders and a package intended to interface with original-equipment lift are distinct specifications. Match the listing to the car and confirm which components are supplied and retained.

Mounts, rear layout and spring rates

Where a choice is offered, a coilover rear unit and a divorced rear spring-and-damper arrangement are separate configurations. Choose the correct one for the installation; do not assume every kit changes the original rear layout.

Top plates and mounts also need an exact compatibility check. Axle position, handedness and the intended damper can affect the right part. Any manufacturer restrictions on using them with other dampers remain relevant.

Road and Track are the standard setup choices where listed. For a bespoke spring-rate build, contact us with the car, intended use and requested rates so the spring and damper specification can be agreed before ordering.

What details should I send?

  • Make, model, chassis or generation and build year.
  • Engine, drivetrain and original suspension equipment.
  • Any electronic damping or factory lift system.
  • Road, track-day or competition use and relevant vehicle modifications.
  • The Nitron part number or product link you are considering.

Availability and ordering

Nitron listings are supplied to order. The website price is the retail selling price; current build and delivery timing is confirmed on enquiry. A manufacturer availability indication does not mean a kit is physically held at GSM Performance.

Match the individual product, every selectable configuration and the manufacturer documents to your car. Arrange professional fitting and geometry setup, and confirm delivery timing before reserving a workshop date.
