I think this is very fresh news with these BBS wheels. And I also did not know that BBS is now owned by KW… So the circle closes now.

I think you have to put into perspective, in the light of Lotus realm, that's what Jason Cammisa is referring to. Referring to the best of the best. It's still very good, but it's not as communcative as my Opel Speedster for example. It simply cannot. Evora of old did have 17" or 18" fronts...

I appreciate Jason Cammisa more and more, this episode was great! You just realize how much he loves cars and I think he is spot on with his comments regarding Emira and other Lotus products. I can relate to that. :giggle:

Thanks for posting this OP. Prices seem to be very ambitious, but Komo-Tec do offer a TÜV-approval for these stages, this means that at least in Germany these tuning stages are road-legal. That's quite special as most tuners don't do this anymore, hence it could be worth the money, at least...

Today I got a letter from Lotus where I was told to get in contact with my dealer in order to make that A-pillar trim airbag recall. It‘s now scheduled for the 29th of september. They will also update ecu from engine and infotainment system. Furthermore I told my dealer that wind noise on...

Herzlichen Glückwunsch! :)

Emira FE V6 weighs more like 1480-1490kg with a full fuel tank. I mesaured several times 11,2s for 100-200km/h, so you are more like 16s for 0-200km/h. With a tune to 435hp you will probably end up with a 14,5-15s for 0-200km/h. But you will never get even close to 11-12s for 0-200, that’s...

What came to my mind is you could also use it for different usages e.g. Profile 1: Standard (relaxed seating position) Profile 2: Race (more upright seating position)

More or less by coincidence I found driver profiles on the centre display today. I was obviously using the guest profile all the time and I am wondering now what you can do with those four driver profiles. Do they offer something special? At least I found something interesting, see attached...

Better try 245/35 R20! It’s Cayman GT4 size, so should be available somewhere.

Any updates reagarding Larini exhaust options? When will it be fitted to your car? I had once a Larini exhaust on my VX220 Turbo / Speedster and it was the best sounding I remember. Fond memories.

That was on and over the limit, my gosh, some crazy driving! :eek: (y) But the exhaust sounds wicked! :cool:

I second that, it's not always the car's fault. In the last time I found Apple carplay to be faulty with my BMW M2, too. So I guess it's up to iOS and those regular updates where it can get tricky. It loses connection after a short break and restarting the engine, when I'm on the school-run...

To be honest the seats are somehow also for me the lowlight of the car. They nearly don't have any shoulder-support at all. I don't know but it gets very obvious when changing between my cars. In my VX220 Turbo (Speedster) seats it's nearly perfect for me, you instantly feel as if you're moulded...

I know it’s a little less Emira-related, but it shows that even gold-standard 911 GT3 can have serious mechanical issues. And I find it very good that Sam has published this video:

A new one from JayEmm:

Just watched the video from his run, just mental. This guy is serious! 😎 Who is this guy Raphael Astier, where does he race? He is ace. 👍🏻

No, it has much more depth and colour brilliance, even on my iPhone. I suppose it‘s the picture compression rate of the forum software, which causes this.

Even under overcast sky:

Yesterday I was just sitting in the garage and listened to the sound of the KEF system, engine was turned off. And I really like the sound quality of the system. It has one of the best cohesive quality when it comes to speech intelligibility, it's like listening with good headphones, you start...

What a honey! :love: I found some new b-roads around my home. I was just studying google maps a little before I left and had a blast this morning. Grip with Goodyears and sport suspension is phenomenal and more than you could ask for on public roads. I did several "laps" on different...

Back from South-Tirol to my home destination I managed to get 9,2L/100km (that equals to 30,7mpg [GB]) with an average speed of 118kph, mostly on german Autobahn. Traveld in tour mode because on such a long road trip of about 820km you want it more quiet most of the time.

Happened also to me, when I was driving away in the night from a Birthday party last week. I ended up at a Gas station, finally left the car, closed the doors, smoked a cigarette. And after about ten minutes I could restart as if there hadn‘t been a problem at all. No warning lights. But it...

These are the ones you need to get rid off first. ;) And then one main cat with 100 cpsi or 200cpsi, that would be most beneficial. These near-engine-head mounted cats are only there in order to cut emissions during first 60 seconds as they heat up rapidly and get into their working window much...

It's obviously beneficial getting this cat delete pipe, if you don't care about your environment. I'm asking myself what kind of catalytic converter Lotus uses here. Is it a ceramic monolith or is already a stainless steel honeycomb like HJS uses for their catalytic converters? And what cpsi do...

Today I did some performance tests, beautiful weather, 26°C, about 2800km on the odo. First run was a 100...200km/h run using third and fourth gear: It's about 11,1s to 11,2s for 100...200km/h. Maybe I could shed one tenth wringing out 3rd gear as it goes beyond 160km/h. But that's what you...

I am having the same setup, it's like the good old Vtec is kicking in at about 5500-6000rpm and then you hit the rev-limiter, much too soon. It's exactly as you stated, the engine feels like it wants to rev much higher. This was the same behaviour with the demo car. So I think it's meant to be...

If I was alone I probably would do it exactly like this, but my girlfriend was with me on this trip. You really have to balance things out, otherwise you get into trouble soon... :ROFLMAO: It is such an amazing car and the feedback you get is almost unreal. Even a Ferrari 458 owner at a gas...
