Is the Nitron 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad comfortable on long drives?

Yes. That’s what the FastRoad setup is for. The Nitron 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad uses road-biased spring rates and low-friction NTR-R1 dampers that absorb sharp bumps and expansion joints instead of passing them into the cabin. The Elise 111R stays relaxed on long highway runs, then flat and responsive when the road gets twisty.

Does the Nitron Elise 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad fit both the 111R and Elise R?

Yes. The Nitron Elise 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad coilover kit fits the S2 Lotus Elise 111R and the later Elise R. Every kit is sprung and valved to order, so the setup can be matched to the car and how it’s driven. K-series S2 Elise models use their own Nitron kits.

Are mounting brackets included with the Nitron 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad?

Yes. Mounting brackets are included with every Nitron 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad kit and are supplied to suit your car’s drive side. Select LHD or RHD when ordering, and the kit arrives with the correct brackets to fit the factory double wishbone suspension without sourcing extra hardware.

How does the Nitron 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad compare with the ClubSport and RacePro 3?

The Nitron 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad and ClubSport share the same NTR-R1 damper with combined 2-way adjustment. The FastRoad uses softer, road-biased springs, while the ClubSport uses slightly stiffer springs for owners who spend more time on track. The RacePro 3 is the full-race kit, with independent 3-way adjustment for dedicated competition cars.

Can the Nitron Elise 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad be rebuilt later?

Yes. Every Nitron Elise 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad damper is fully serviceable, so it can be rebuilt, revalved or fitted with different springs. For an Elise 111R you plan to keep and drive for years, that means the suspension can be kept in top condition, or moved toward a firmer setup, instead of being replaced.

Description

Nitron NTR-R1 FastRoad Coilover Kit for S2 Lotus Elise 111R / R

The 111R is the S2 Elise that people take on long trips. It’s an open sports car that some owners will happily drive hundreds of miles in a day, with the high-revving Toyota engine making every on-ramp an event. Over that kind of distance, a stiff or poorly damped setup gets tiring. Every expansion joint jars, the steering gets nervous on uneven highway surfaces, and by the end of the day the driver is worn out. The Nitron 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad coilover kit is built for that kind of driving. Nitron gives the FastRoad softer, road-biased spring rates than the ClubSport kit, and the low-friction NTR-R1 dampers absorb the sharp edges that wear you down. The car stays flat and responsive when the road turns twisty. One adjuster per corner sets bump and rebound together, so a few clicks soften the car for a long highway run or firm it up for a track day. The kit fits both the Elise 111R and the later Elise R. Mounting brackets are included for your car’s drive side, so the Nitron Elise 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad bolts straight into the factory double wishbone suspension.

Unique Technology

The Nitron NTR-R1 comes from Nitron’s race program, and much of its internal hardware is shared with the NTR-R3 that Nitron races internationally. There’s no remote canister, so each damper stays compact and the install is a straightforward bolt-in. Very low internal friction lets the damper start working as soon as a wheel moves. That takes the sting out of sharp, small bumps that a stickier damper passes straight into the cabin, and it’s the main reason a long drive feels easier on the Nitron 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad. The same quick response keeps the tires loaded when the pace picks up. The damping also resists fade, so the balance stays consistent through a hot afternoon in the mountains or a full track session.
- Basic Damper Design:
  1. End Eye / Top Mount
  2. Damper Piston & Shim Stack
  3. Shaft / Rod
  4. Floating / Separator Piston
  5. Suspension Oil
  6. Compressed Nitrogen Gas

Bespoke Engineering

Each Nitron 111R NTR-R1 FastRoad kit is built by hand once it’s ordered, with springs and valving matched to the Toyota-powered Elise 111R and to a road-first brief. That suits owners who put real miles on their car, plan road trips around great driving roads and do the occasional track day, without wanting the firmer ride of a track-focused setup. Hard-anodized and titanium-finish components keep weight down on a car built around low mass, and they resist corrosion through wet weather, winter grime and long periods in storage. An Elise 111R is usually a car people keep, so its suspension should last as long as they do. Every Nitron NTR-R1 damper can be fully serviced and revalved, and the springs can be changed. The kit can be refreshed for years and moved toward a firmer setup if the car’s use changes.

About Nitron Suspension

Nitron Suspension has been at the forefront of precision suspension engineering since 1998, founded by Guy Evans with the goal of building high-performance shocks for enthusiasts and professionals alike. Over 200 dealers now carry Nitron products across Europe, Asia, the US, Australasia, and Africa. In 2008, the company moved into a dedicated facility in the UK’s Motorsport Valley, adding dynamometers, 5-axis CNC machines, and 3D CAD capabilities to support both growing demand and continued product development. A second expansion came in 2023 with a new office in Murrieta, California. The team behind every Nitron product draws from deep backgrounds in machining, materials technology, hydraulics, bike engineering, and F1 racing, with many engineers bringing firsthand experience as competitive drivers and riders. That depth of knowledge across both the technical and competitive sides of motorsport shapes every product Nitron develops.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
