I'd love to go, but it's on a weekday and also a 5 hour drive from Tokyo. Hope some Emira owners can participate and upload footage!

LOTUS TRACK DAY in SUZUKA CIRCUIT 2025 Details ==> https://www.lotus-cars.jp/news/news/lotus-track-day-in-suzuka-20250827/

Somebody's going to have to develop "artificial paint blister wrap" to make it look authentic.

Just hoping a third party will come out with more conventional materials for post-warranty (out of pocket) replacements. Carbon fiber door panels, anyone?

Thanks for the idea. I just ordered a mini-gnome for next time !

ちなみに、LCI 経由で 部品交換だと70万円弱 修理・再塗装だと40万円弱 修理のみだと... やってみないと分からない万円 です。

The mesh part of the lower rear bumper (including parking sensors and exhaust tips) is just glued into the gloss black trim. Once this bond is broken, you will need to find a way to reattach the whole thing, or get a new assembly and have it painted...

Removed some unneeded weight from the diffuser.

You should have it by winter !

Hot summer day at Shinagawa wharf in Tokyo.

How long have you had the car? Should be due for new tires anyway, right?

Where there's a will...

If you're at home (safe place to work on the car) why not plug it yourself for now? You won't have to worry about dealing with a mobile guy.

I meant to say "It looks nice and I lIke it!"

I didn't think white would look so nice on Dark Verdant !

Did some rudimentary measurements. Consistent with what I saw last year, or 10,000km ago.

No, no, and no. At least, not my Emira.

Just got the AD09s fitted and drove about 10km home. Feels fine for city driving, even quick 90 degree bends :cool: New rubber is always better than 2 year old brittle tires, and I know I would be more comfortable in the rain with these. However, the braking on dry summer asphalt feels softer...

Gauging interest and exploring timing options. Hope to meet local members and folks from Kyushu as well ! Let's discuss possible time frames, hopefully this year... 参加希望者大募集！と同時に時期についても相談しましょう。九州からも Emira 参加の可能性あり！

I don't even bother cleaning them - consider them part of the wheelhouse lining.

Should we all start writing letters to Bridgestone? :cool:

Darn, you get the RE71 in the US too?! I guess the demand is different in the various markets...

Anyone coming this way, please consider packing a set into your carry-on luggage!

Wait, you guys get A052 in Emira sizes in the US? 245/35R20 and 295/30R20 not available in Japan...

Quick update and findings regarding my tire purchasing experience: Many (probably most) tire shops will not be able to handle the Emira in their facilities. The front lift points are so far inside towards the center of the car, that the arms of their lifts cannot reach them. Two post or four...

Feels like I'm constantly pumping gas...

Congrats and enjoy the torture!
