Nitron elec-TRON RoadSport Coilovers for BMW M3 F80 (2014-2018) – Semi-Active Fast Road Coilovers Using OEM Top Mounts
Nitron elec-TRON RoadSport coilovers for the BMW M3 F80 (2014-2018), hand built to order for fast road drivers who want semi-active damping and OEM comfort.
Please note: This kit works with the BMW EDC system, so no additional products are needed.
The elec-TRON RoadSport keeps the car's original top mounts, so comfort and noise stay at OEM levels, and adds Nitron's electronic valve for semi-active damping. It uses a 40mm piston and 16mm piston rod, is nitrogen gas charged and has a preload adjuster.
Nitron's elec-TRON proportional solenoid valve gives each damper its own electronically controlled valve, so damping can be adjusted individually at every wheel. The valve works across a 300-1800mA range and moves from full hard to full soft in around 6 to 8 milliseconds, adjusting both compression and rebound by fine-tuning the bleed of the shim stack inside Nitron's gas-pressurised monotube damper.

Installation
The kit replaces the standard dampers and springs. It uses the original top mounts. Set the ride height and preload, let the suspension settle, then recheck the height and have a four-wheel alignment carried out. We recommend professional fitting.
All Nitron shocks are hand made to order. Lead times are normally 2-3 weeks, but can be longer at busy times, so contact us for an up-to-date estimate.
How is the damping adjusted?
Damping is controlled electronically by the elec-TRON valve.
Do I need anything else to run this kit?
This kit works with the BMW EDC system, so no additional products are needed.
Can I have different spring rates?
Yes. Every kit is built and sprung to order, so contact us before ordering to discuss your spring rates.
Can the dampers be serviced?
Yes. Nitron dampers are fully serviceable, so they can be rebuilt and refreshed rather than replaced.
Do I need a wheel alignment after fitting?
Yes. Changing the suspension and ride height alters the geometry, so a four-wheel alignment should be carried out once the car has settled.
How long will it take to arrive?
All Nitron shocks are hand made to order. Lead times are normally 2-3 weeks, but contact us for an up-to-date estimate.
What warranty is included?
Nitron products are covered against defects in materials and workmanship. Contact us if you have a problem with your kit.
