They also have a reputation for top-notch customer service, which is invaluable. Since they've focused their efforts on a single product, the Orbit, I think you can expect marginally better performance than you can from Pro-ject's bottom-of-the-line. U-Turn, though only a small upstart company, has its advantages as well.
PROJECT DEBUT CARBON VS. UTURN SPECIAL UPGRADE
Pro-ject also has multiple product lines and dozens of different and better tables that you might be eligible to upgrade to in the future. There are a slew of tweaks available which could enhance your experience with the elemental such as upgraded belts, sub-platters, and so forth. On one hand, you have Pro-ject, with many years of industry experience and tons of support from aftermarket manufacturers. I would say the two options you proposed are about evenly matched spec-wise, so I would elect a more forward-thinking, philosophical approach to whichever you select. Though they have a reputation as reliable workhorses, I've experienced pitch issues and other shortcomings in spec with cheaper technics models including the ones you possess. Imho, both would offer at least a slight improvement over your current Technics. Good luck with whatever you do and these are all good choices and certainly better than a kick in the head! I have no experience with the Pro-ject you mentioned but it's a model that also has plenty of fans. I believe that it will last a long time and be easy to service when the time comes.
A virtue of their machines is that they are very, very simple and I've taken mine completely apart with a small screwdriver. Part of the value is in U-Turn's incredible customer service, which ranks with the best customer service I've ever received, period. I believe it to be a great machine and a great bargain at its price. Well reviewed by professionals and users. American made, genuine Pennsylvania Walnut plinth. I own a U-Turn Orbit Special Walnut with acrylic platter and 2m blue. Whether a new machine is right for you is your call entirely. I'm more a fan of newer machines and to each their own in that regard. I haven't owned one of those old garage-find Technics.
