OEM Top Mount Compatible
Our 3-Way Suspension Kit is designed for drivers who want professional-level adjustability while retaining the reliability and refinement of the original factory mounting system. Unlike many motorsport coilover setups that require replacement top mounts, this kit utilises the OEM top plates, preserving factory geometry, NVH characteristics, and ease of installation. To accommodate the external adjuster system while maintaining this compatibility, the dampers feature a precision-modified piston rod engineered specifically for this configuration.
3-Way Adjustable Damping
Each damper provides independent adjustment of:
-
Low-speed compression
-
High-speed compression
-
Rebound
This allows precise tuning for road, track, or mixed-use applications, giving you full control over chassis behaviour during cornering, braking, and load transfer.
OEM Top Mount Integration
By retaining the factory top plates, the system:
-
Maintains factory mounting geometry
-
Reduces unwanted noise and vibration compared to solid motorsport mounts
-
Simplifies installation with no permanent vehicle modifications required
Modified Piston Rod Design
To enable the 3-way adjustment system while keeping the OEM top mount, the damper incorporates a specially engineered piston rod. This design allows the adjustment mechanism to be integrated without compromising structural strength or damper performance.
This configuration provides the adjustability expected from a full motorsport damper system while maintaining the practicality and refinement required for high-performance road cars. The result is a suspension package that delivers track-level tuning capability without sacrificing OEM fitment or drivability.

All Nitron shocks are hand made to order to each individual customer's requirements. Lead times are normally 2-3 weeks, but at certain times may be slightly longer.
Front Axle Lift (FAL)
This kit is supplied with the Nitron standalone Front Axle Lift system, letting you raise the front axle to clear speed bumps, ramps and steep driveways without affecting damping performance.
Key features:
- Kit contains all components – lift cylinders, hydraulic lines, pump, mounting bracket, wiring loom and controller
- 250W pump, typical lift time under 3 seconds
- Audible in-cabin warning system and switch with built-in warning light
- Auto-off function
- Lift height varies by application – see the specification table below
