Nitron R1 Coilover Kit – BMW E9X M3
Nitron R1 coilovers for BMW E9X M3 use Nitron's motorsport-derived R1 platform with combined 2-way damping adjustment. The R1 is developed directly from Nitron's full race suspension programme and shares key components with the R3.
Each BMW application is built with model-specific spring rates and damper valving. Ultra-low-friction internal components, corrosion-resistant materials and hard-anodised finishes are used throughout, and the dampers are hand-built and fully serviceable.

Ordering and specification
Specification: before the kit is built we will normally confirm how the car is used, tyre choice, ride height and any relevant supporting modifications, then finalise the spring and damper specification with Nitron.
Why Swift Performance?
Swift Performance works directly with Nitron as a BMW development partner. We actively test and develop BMW suspension applications with Nitron, using our own cars and customer vehicles and providing feedback from road, circuit and workshop use as the kits are refined.
That gives us first-hand experience of how Nitron systems fit, behave and respond to setup changes on BMW platforms. We can confirm the correct specification before the kit is built, supply it for delivery, or install it in-house with ride-height setup, four-wheel alignment and an appropriate baseline damper setup where applicable.
