The evolution of the Nitron range is here. By combining the world renowned Nitron quality and attention to detail, with the latest electronic valve technology - the elec-TRON range is born. By combining innovation and attention to detail, Nitron have consistently produced kits of uncompromising quality. With over twenty five years of experience Nitron designers, engineers and production teams have a successful reputation of serving a wide range of clients and specialist industries, from individual end users to car manufacturers supply.
Every Nitron shock is hand built using quality precision components. Each component has undergone an extensive and rigorous design and development program to ensure optimum performance. Using only the best possible materials and finishes within the manufacturing process to withstand years of environmental attack, allows Nitron to guarantee their shocks with a 5-year limited warranty (5-year warranty offered if regular service intervals are maintained). Designed using a modular system, Nitron shocks have maximum flexibility throughout the development of each application and allows products to be 100% serviceable. Providing a service unlike any other brand, inclusive of replacing all critical components, fluids, gas, seals, and bushes, this will return the product to an ‘as new’ performance condition, providing an impressive extension of its lifespan.
The use of Nitron’s proportional solenoid valve in each shock gives a high level of precision and control in the damping system. Each shock absorber in the Nitron elec-TRON system is equipped with its own valve, allowing for independent damping control of for each wheel, crucial for optimized handling, stability, and ride comfort. The system can precisely adjust the damping force based on various factors such as g-load conditions, vehicle speed, road conditions, and driver input resulting in super accurate and responsive damping, enhancing the overall performance of the vehicle.
The Nitron elec-TRON system offers flexibility in its application by providing integration with OEM Electronic Systems: For vehicles already equipped with OEM electronic damping systems such as BMW’s EDC or Porsche’s PASM, the Nitron elec-TRON suspension kit is designed to work in conjunction with these. This integration allows users to retain full functionality of the OEM controls, while also benefiting from the added capabilities and precision offered by the Nitron elec-TRON system. In this case, the Nitron system complements and enhances the performance of the existing OEM system. For those not equipped with EDC, Nitron offers a standalone DCU controller (available separately).
R1 Coilover Kit
The elec-TRON-R1 coilover kit utilities the Nitron proportional solenoid valve with all of the damping control being carried out by the control system. This kit includes our adjustable top mounts and uses our race springs, which in turn gives you the ultimate adjustment for a perfect geometry setup.
