Product Description

The Nitron NTR R1 Coilover Kit is a premium suspension upgrade for the BMW F80 M3, developed for drivers who want sharper response, improved body control and genuine fast road and track day capability. Derived from Nitron’s race-winning NTR R3 damper platform, the R1 offers serious performance in a compact, non-canister package that remains straightforward to adjust and use.

The kit features 1-way combined damping adjustment, allowing bump and rebound to be tuned together through a single adjuster. This gives the F80 M3 a more composed and precise feel under braking, cornering and acceleration, while keeping setup changes simple for drivers moving between road and circuit use.

For the F80 platform, the NTR R1 is available in either True Rear or Divorced Rear configuration. The True Rear setup combines the spring and damper into a single coilover unit for a more focused track-oriented layout, while the Divorced Rear option retains the factory-style separate spring and damper arrangement for a more traditional installation approach.

Nitron supplies the kit with carefully developed Fast Road or Track spring rate options, allowing the setup to be matched to the way the car is used. The Fast Road setup is ideal for spirited road driving with occasional track days, while the Track setup offers greater stiffness, reduced chassis movement and improved control during more demanding circuit use.

Built with a monotube damper design, ultra-low friction internals, hard-anodised components and titanium hardware, the NTR R1 is engineered for consistent damping performance, durability and long-term serviceability. Each kit is hand-assembled to order by Nitron in the UK and can be further tailored with custom spring rates, spring lengths or damper lengths for more specific builds.

Suitable for BMW F80 M3 models produced from 2014–2018, this kit is a strong suspension upgrade for owners looking to improve chassis precision, confidence and repeatable performance on both road and track.
