How much lift does the standalone FAL provide on Nitron's R33 GTS-25t NTR-R1 coilover kit?

The FAL raises the front axle 25mm at the shock, enough to clear driveways, speed bumps, and parking obstacles without changing the damping setup underneath.

Does raising the FAL affect how the car drives once it's lowered back down?

No. The FAL only lifts the front axle when activated and returns to the set ride height afterward, so the suspension tune stays the same once it's back down.

What kind of adjustment does this kit offer?

2-way combined compression and rebound adjustment, letting an owner dial in a range from comfortable street settings to a stiffer track setup.

Does this kit include adjustable top mounts?

Yes. Every kit ships with adjustable top mounts for precise ride height and camber correction, along with race springs.

Is this kit different from a GT-R NTR-R1 kit with FAL for the same chassis?

Yes. The GTS-25t is RWD without the GT-R's ATTESA E-TS transfer case and front differential, so the front weight distribution and mounting points differ enough that Nitron builds each kit around its own platform.

Can custom spring rates be ordered?

Yes. Every kit is custom built to order, and custom spring rates beyond the standard setup are available by contacting us directly.

Nitron NTR-R1 Coilover Kit w/ Standalone FAL for R33 Nissan Skyline GTS-25t (facelift)

Nitron’s R33 GTS-25t NTR-R1 coilover kit with standalone FAL solves the one problem every lowered RWD Skyline owner runs into eventually, a front splitter or lip that can’t survive a steep driveway or a speed bump without scraping. This facelift GTS-25t runs the RB25DET single-turbo six without the GT-R’s ATTESA E-TS transfer case and front differential, so the nose carries less weight and less hardware up front, which is exactly the kind of platform-specific detail Nitron builds around rather than adapting GT-R spec parts with a lift bolted on. The Front Axle Lift raises the front end 25mm at the shock in under three seconds at the push of a button, then drops back down to the set ride height once you’re clear. Two-way combined compression and rebound adjustment lets an owner dial in exactly how the car reacts under braking and through a corner, and the internal reservoir design keeps the kit compact enough to fit inside the factory wheel wells without any external plumbing to route or protect. Every kit includes adjustable top mounts and race springs, and it’s custom built and fully serviceable.

The Nitron Front Axle Lift (FAL)

The FAL system on this Nitron R33 GTS-25t NTR-R1 coilover kit uses a dedicated 250W pump to lift the front axle 25mm at the shock, clearing a driveway or speed bump before it ever has a chance to catch the splitter. The whole cycle takes under three seconds, with an audible warning and a dash-mounted switch light letting the driver know the system is active, and it drops back down automatically once you’re past the obstacle.
- 250W pump
- 25mm lift height
- Typical lift time under 3-seconds
- Audible in-cabin warning system
- Switch with built-in warning light
- Auto off function
- Protects your car from damage caused by steep driveways and speed bumps
- Compatible with a wide range of suspension setups

Unique Technology

This R33 GTS-25t NTR-R1 coilover kit uses 2-way combined adjustment, compression and rebound moving together off a single dial, tuned so an owner gets a real range between a comfortable street setting and a stiffer setup for a track day without hunting through clicks that don’t actually change how the car feels. Everything runs off an internal reservoir, no hose or piggyback canister needed, which keeps the kit self-contained and easier to package around the R33’s factory subframe and control arms, even with the FAL hardware added up front.

Bespoke Engineering

Nitron engineers their R33 GTS-25t NTR-R1 coilover kit around this RWD chassis and its double wishbone front and multi-link rear geometry, not the GT-R’s AWD-specific mounting points and reinforced subframe. Adjustable top mounts let an owner correct camber and set ride height precisely instead of guessing at spring perch position, and the FAL system is integrated into that same design rather than bolted on as an afterthought, so lift and damping work together instead of fighting each other.

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.
