Am also contemplating a lemon law claim as I've suffered two broken shifters which had the car out if service for about 40 days. I dont suspect service or part availability will improve with time on the emira, so would pursue a refund of purchase instead of replacement.

For reference, here's what my v6 Emira balanced out to with driver weight (190 lbs) and a half tank of fuel. You can see that the left side is still supporting more weight than the right, so in theory, removing more weight from the left side of the car (lightweight battery, driver seat, or a...

Having been through the sport suspension with the goodyears, then swapped to PSC2's because I felt the tire sidewalls were too soft for turn in on track, then swapping to the Ohlins from Jubu... I think both the touring and sports suspension on the car have inadequately stiff springs, and...

Tumi international carry on does fit. You have to load it on its side, then rotate it under the latch, so as long as the bag isn't stuffed it works. If doing motorsports things, the Wine county / LVRY bag is a drop in fit for a helmet Hans, shoes, and gear.

Curious what system you are using to record with steering wheel data and overlay

I suction cup mount mine low center on the dash, have an extra ram mount link that lets it get a bit further out toward me. Doesn't really obscure any vision outside car. The camera you want to use the sticky mount. I've had the suction cup one fall off. That's central and up as high on the...

Cup 2's are going to raise your lateral and braking loads a bit to maybe like 1.5g peak from 1.2g range peak. It's not going to wildly change the vehicle. If you add a ton of downforce and can sustain higher loads for longer then maybe it makes sense, but is pretty overkill for a street car on...

@F1 SML8R Maybe next time. Coming from the Bay Area, it's a commitment. Will be at Sonoma instead next week with a GT4.

Also just received the Ohlins from Jubu a few weeks ago, and finally had time to take them to the track this last weekend. Very high quality product and the mounts that Jubu makes are well thought out and well manufactured. Spring rates are 500lb/in The dampers though have a HUGE range of...

Thank you! This is super helpful. And my alignment shop didn't fully investigate last time because it's me, and I was pressed for time to get the car ready for a track day. Was only able to get through corner balance and ride height setting then a quick toe check before needing to get...

Does anyone have a guide for adjusting Emira camber? I'm assuming it's shim based and if anyone has this info, it'd be helpful. - 1mm shim = roughly how much negative camber - Is there a specific geometry to the shim or would most u shaped shims fit? - If specific, does anyone sell a kit of...
