Neither, there's a middle way 
I believe the basic model Nitron emulsion shock doesn't have a wealth of adjustment options as the more expensive versions do, which would rule it out for me.
However, you take a risk picking up an FZS1000 shock, as it may be due a rebuild before changing the spring over. If it does still have life left in it, it would be a decent improvement over standard and cheaper than the Nitron. Labour really shouldn't be that much if the instructions posted somewhere on this messageboard are followed properly.
