    Zinc(?) spotted on La Honda in the Bay Area…I was in the DV heading up to Alice’s!

    Real Track Testing the Stock I4 Emira – Brakes & Gearbox Issues at Buttonwillow and Laguna Seca

    Strongly recommend changing your brake fluid for a DOT4 racing fluid as well, eg Motul 600, Amsoil, Castrol SRF.

    Emira track impressions

    Will you be at Laguna with Lightspeed on July 17th by chance? I'll keep an eye out if so! I haven't heard of any 3RSs running 26s...I know SP's is in the 28s. Maybe they've dropped further as they've kept modding it, but every tenth gets harder from here!

    Emira track impressions

    You might try this. It's not elegant, but I've heard it's exceptionally effective. It's literally an adjustable strap that goes behind your seat and around your torso to secure you to the seat...

    Emira GRP Third Cat Delete Pipe and Milltek Active Valve Exhaust Control Install Video

    Tip for those who have issues with fitting the cat delete pipe and need to expand: the cheaper expander (this one) did not work at all for me, despite a lot of effort and time; I then tried this more robust version from Harbor Freight, and it worked instantly. As always, the right tool makes all...
