Which Aston Martin V12 Vantage model years does this kit cover?

The Nitron elec-TRON RoadSport coilover kit is confirmed to fit the Aston Martin V12 Vantage from 2009 to 2018. If you're unsure about your specific build date or variant, we are happy to assist.

How does the elec-TRON RoadSport integrate with the V12 Vantage's factory electronics?

The elec-TRON RoadSport integrates directly with the V12 Vantage's factory electronic damping system as a bolt-in replacement, picking up the OEM computer integration without any modification needed. Aston Martin's adaptive damping system stays fully operational with the Nitron hardware in place of the stock dampers.

Does the elec-TRON RoadSport need to be manually adjusted?

No. Damping is handled entirely by Nitron's proportional solenoid valve and the DCU, which monitors g-load, vehicle speed, road conditions, and driver inputs simultaneously and makes corrections every six milliseconds. There's nothing for the driver to adjust; the system manages it in real time.

How does the elec-TRON RoadSport compare to the standard RoadSport kit?

Both kits retain the OEM top mounts and are built around road use, but the elec-TRON RoadSport replaces manual damping adjustment with Nitron's proportional solenoid valve and DCU-controlled electronic damping. The standard RoadSport uses combined 2-way manual adjustment across 24 clicks, which gives the driver direct control over the setup. The elec-TRON version handles that automatically, making it the better fit for owners who want the suspension to adapt to conditions without any input on their end.

What is the Nitron Spring Upgrade and does it come with the kit?

The Nitron Spring Upgrade lowers the V12 Vantage between 20mm and 40mm using springs with a slightly stiffer rate than OEM, improving body control and stance while keeping the ride compliance the car was built around. It is not included as standard but is available separately for owners who want to address ride height alongside the coilover upgrade.

Are droplinks included with the kit?

No, droplinks are not included. The kit consists of four shock assemblies covering front and rear, with four additional springs included if the Spring Upgrade is selected.

Description

Nitron elec-TRON RoadSport Coilover Kit for Aston Martin V12 Vantage (2009-2018)

The Aston Martin V12 Vantage is a car that makes a strong case for being driven every day, and the Nitron elec-TRON RoadSport coilover kit for the 2009-2018 V12 Vantage is developed around exactly that kind of use. Where most performance suspension upgrades push you toward a compromise between daily comfort and improved capability, the elec-TRON RoadSport doesn’t force that choice. It integrates directly with the V12 Vantage’s factory electronic damping system, using Nitron’s proportional solenoid valve and DCU-controlled damping to manage suspension response in real time without any manual adjustment required from the driver. The kit is designed around the factory OEM top mounts, keeping noise, vibration, and harshness in check so the car stays composed and comfortable on the road while delivering noticeably sharper handling over the stock setup. The hardware carries over core technology from the R1 kit, so there’s genuine engineering substance behind the comfort-focused brief. For owners who want to go further, the Nitron Spring Upgrade is available separately, lowering the V12 Vantage between 20mm and 40mm with a slightly stiffer spring rate than OEM while keeping the ride compliance the car was designed around.

elec-TRON

Each shock in Nitron’s elec-TRON system carries its own proprietary proportional solenoid valve, giving the DCU precise, independent damping control at every corner simultaneously. The system reads g-load, vehicle speed, road conditions, and driver inputs all at once, making damping corrections every six milliseconds. To put that in context, a blink of the human eye takes between 100 and 150 milliseconds. The suspension isn’t approximating what the road is doing; it’s keeping up with it in real time. elec-TRON is available in two configurations; OEM-Integration for vehicles that came from the factory with electronic damping, and Standalone Electronic Damping for those that didn’t.

Integration with OEM Electronic Systems

The Nitron elec-TRON kit installs as a direct bolt-in replacement on vehicles equipped from the factory with electronic damping, picking up the OEM computer integration without any modification needed. Everything the factory system was designed to do continues to work exactly as intended; Aston Martin’s adaptive damping system stays fully operational, now with considerably more capable hardware behind it.

Nitron Spring Upgrade

The Nitron Spring Upgrade for the Aston Martin V12 Vantage is built for owners who want to sharpen road manners and bring the ride height down without committing to a full coilover conversion. The springs lower the V12 Vantage between 20mm and 40mm, reducing body roll and improving stance, while a slightly stiffer rate over the OEM setup adds body control and responsiveness without stripping out the ride quality. The upgrade works within the existing suspension architecture, so the compliance and refinement the V12 Vantage was designed around stays intact. It’s a focused change that improves the car without altering its fundamental character.

Unique Technology

Nitron builds every shock from precision components that go through a rigorous design and development process well before the unit reaches final assembly. The modular construction gives engineers the flexibility to work through each application properly without cutting corners on how parts are made or how they perform together under real load. Everything is machined to tight tolerances and checked individually by trained technicians; that level of quality control isn’t concentrated at the end of the process, it runs through all of it. New materials, finishes, and processes are put through extensive validation before they’re brought into production, with proprietary Nitron technologies integrated throughout to produce shocks that hold their own against the competition on road and track alike. That discipline in engineering is what the brand has stood on since day one.

Bespoke Engineering

Nitron doesn’t start with a generic damper and reverse engineer a fit. Every application is developed from scratch, with components, spring rates, and damping characteristics built around the specific platform rather than adapted from something in the same ballpark. The vehicle’s geometry, weight distribution, and suspension travel are factored into the design from the beginning, not addressed as afterthoughts. That’s the gap between a kit that happens to fit a car and one that was actually engineered for it.

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.
