As title says... i have noticed Nitron has brought out a range of coilovers for the Evora ranging from fast road to track. just wondered if anyone has any experience with these i.e. ride quality, ride height adjustment etc...

I guess we all like different things, but of all the cars money can buy, the Evora is one of the best chassis out there, so trying to improve it will be very difficult. Clearly you can make the car more track focused, but why, there are cars more suited for track work like the Elise already out there, and if you stiffen the ride you`ll destroy the alround ability the chassis has. I will be trackday`ing mine by the way...first one in April. I might be changing my mind after??

Totally agree, the Evora chassis / suspension set up is a very good all round package. Only reason I ask is that I no longer need to use mine daily and, like you, plan to do a few track days in it this summer. Nitron have a good reputation with other Lotus coilover kits ie the Elise/Exige's (cars that were praised for their chassis / suspension when new) and a lot of these are now on aftermarket set ups.

So just wondered if anyone had any first hand experience with them... Always interesting to know. But I do agree that bettering what the Evora already does is a very tall order!
