Nitron BMW F80 M3 Elec-TRON R1 Suspension Kit with Standalone FAL
NITRON ELEC-TRON R1 SUSPENSION KIT WITH STANDALONE FRONT AXLE LIFT (FAL)
Please note: This kit is compatible with the BMW EDC system, so no additional products are required.
The Nitron FAL (Front Axle Lift) is a compact hydraulic system designed to temporarily raise the front of the car, helping it clear speed bumps, ramps, or steep driveways without scraping. Working at the push of a button, it lifts the front axle by 25mm, whilst maintaining the car’s handling characteristics. It gives drivers the everyday practicality they need without compromising the precision and performance expected from a high-end suspension system.
- Standalone FAL system that raises 25mm at shock
- Compatible with BMW EDC system, no additional products required
- FAL kit contains all components (Cylinders, Hydraulic Lines, Pump, Wiring Loom and Controller)
NITRON ELEC-TRON RANGE
The Nitron elec-TRON system combines our proven suspension engineering with precision electronic valve control to deliver exceptional handling, stability, and ride comfort. At its core is Nitron’s proprietary proportional solenoid valve, allowing independent adjustment of compression and rebound damping at each wheel. This enables the suspension to react instantly to changing conditions, with a rapid 6 to 8 millisecond response time and a wide adjustment range of 300 to 1800 mA.
The valve is mounted directly on the piston rod to fine tune the bleed characteristics of the shim stack, working in harmony with Nitron’s gas pressurised monotube construction for maximum consistency and reliability. In the R1 configuration, damping is managed entirely through electronic adjustment, while the R3 adds manual high and low-speed compression settings to set a baseline for further real time fine tuning. The system continually adjusts damping force based on inputs such as g load, vehicle speed, road surface, and driver control, resulting in a highly responsive and confidence inspiring drive.
For BMW models equipped with factory Electronic Damper Control (EDC), elec-TRON integrates directly with the OEM system, allowing full use of the original in car controls and driving modes. Rather than replacing the factory setup, it works alongside it to deliver sharper response, greater damping precision, and a more composed ride in every mode. For BMW’s without EDC, the system can be operated via Nitron’s dedicated Damping Control Unit.
The result is a suspension solution that complements the character of your BMW, enhancing performance and control without sacrificing the usability and comfort you expect from the ultimate driving machine.
NITRON FRONT AXLE LIFT (FAL)
Many performance car owners face a common challenge: balancing track performance with the realities of street driving. Lowering the ride height for optimal performance often leads to difficulties with steep driveways, speed bumps, and storm drains. These obstacles can cause damage, making daily driving a risk.
The Nitron FAL offers a convenient way to tackle these challenges. Available with a 25mm lift, this system allows you to raise the front axle just enough to clear obstacles without affecting performance.
