Ohlins TTX vs Nitron

[Tracked Emira]

I am deciding between these 2
Many have Nitron, but who has or is getting Ohlins? If you chose Nitron or Ohlins, what are the reasons you made your choice?
Is the setup you’re running what you expected and would you change anything?

Regardless of other considerations folks offer. Which is closer to you geographically to do rebuilds?

Nitron just moved to SoCal. Ohlins I believe is in NC?

I'm in the US. The Ohlins TTX has been tested extensively by JUBU for the track, but I really do like the lift system in the Nitron because I will also be driving on roads and will have a splitter so it will be nice to raise the front end wheen needed.

Sooooo, what kinda cost are we talking here? Would love to have the option to lower with a lift system.

Sounds like you already decided

I met Guy Evans briefly a few months ago when he was visiting Shinoo and the team at InoKinetic. I was the only Emira in attendance at the monthly gathering. He mentioned he had had his own Emira for almost a year (in the UK). Given their long involvement with the Lotus community I would be inclined to favor Nitron. Build quality looks impressive. Doesn't appear to be dramatically more expensive than any of the other solutions. Nice that they now have a facility here in CA.

I've driven Ohlins on my Porsche track car for years...generally OK w/them. Rebuild every 2-3 yrs.
I'm trying Nitrons on a new Emira. We'll see.
BTW...yes Nitron now has a SoCal office but builds come from UK and seem to take forever.

I’ve had experience of Ohlins on motorbikes. They’re generally considered the best you can get. I used them on road and track and they were faultless.
