    Anyone done a 3rd to 1st by accident

    Can you explain what specific parameter(s) the ECU stores? Is it just max RPM?

    How to check for abuse during break-in period

    I contacted the dealer who originally sold and serviced this vehicle (oil change + warranty service) and the service manager told me that they are unable to read anything in ECU logs that would be indicative of abuse. This seems suspect to me because how else would they be able to violate...

    How to check for abuse during break-in period

    I'm considering purchasing a 2025 Base MT Emira with 600 miles. The original buyer purchased the car in April 2025 and traded it in on a McLaren 2-3 months later because "he was disappointed with the lack of power and performance" and "preferred McLaren 8 sp AT". The car appears to be...

    Lotus Driving Experience

    Thanks very much for your answers! They did tell me that all their cars are MTs and include LHD, so that good news for me. I'm just wondering how much if any they adapt the instruction to inputs given during the instructor goal setting. For example, if I tell them that I want to improve...

    Manual shifting improvements

    On a related note, the Emira does NOT come with auto throttle blip does it? I'm coming from Nissan 370Z which does have this; so I assume I'm going to have to develop my heel & toe skills or add aftermarket mod.

    Lotus Driving Experience

    I am planning to book the full day 'tailor-made' advanced class in May and want to understand just what is included in the morning skills sessions and afternoon track sessions. I've reached out to the academy to ask some questions, particularly about the structure & format of the experience...

    My wild Emira predictions, come shoot holes in it.

    Who is your dealer and do you have a formal agreement with them for this? When I mentioned to my US dealer that I would like to move my deposit to a Final Edition, they told me that there is nothing official on this and it's only a rumor.

    USA/Canada Delivery Thread

    I'm a big of a Z-car fan as you'll find having owned and driven almost them almos exclusively over my life including a '72 240Z, '90 300ZX Coupe, '95 300ZX 2+2, '95 300ZX-TT, 2010 3Z0Z 40thAE & current 2016 370Z Nismo. I had given up on Nissan ever releasing the new Z, but was excited when it...

    Any USA with a confirmed delivery date? When will they start to arrive stateside?

    I was able to do a test drive in Dallas (Earth Motor Cars) last week and was told that they expect to deliver the first 12 by EOY and then receive an allocation of ~ 30/mo after that. I'm skeptical of that for obvious reasons. I put down my deposit in Jan 2023 and was #120 on the list and...

    Oil temperature and pressure reading?

    Does the Emira V6 have a decent oil cooler? I plan to be tracking it in the Texas early summers which generally requires hefty oil cooler. My Nismo 370Z has an added 34 row Setrab cooler and keeps temps under 240 even in the hottest days I've driven it. I give long before the oil cooler does.

    Dashcam for the Emira

    This looks like the same camera that comes with the Garmin Catalyst.
