    Japan - Emira Ownership (エミーラ納車とその後)

    I can't trust any of the digital readouts on this car. Tire pressure is measured with an analog guage, and I will be using the dipstick for the oil level... センサー類がアテにならないので、結局は旧来の方法で確認するしかないですね。

    GRP decat pipe and Milltek Valve Controller

    Yup, just allows you to control the valve. Also adds weight and introduces additional points of failure, however low the probability. Still, many consider the ability to control the valve far outweighs the cons. I have a set waiting to be installed next time I remove the diffuser.

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    I didn't drop the cotter pin, but dropped the OEM eyelet :rolleyes:. Will need to retrieve at the next oil change. Shift feels nice and short, but not as stiff as expected (which was a pleasant surprise). Bespoke template for shifter position adjustment.

    GRP Short Shifter Install Notes and My thoughts

    Thanks to @RyanGphoto for starting this informative thread. I have learned a lot. Other than dropping the OEM eyelet into the abyss (will have it retrieved next visit to the dealer for an oil change), the install went smoothly. Attached is my contribution to those who are worried about...

    GRP Short Shifter Install Notes and My thoughts

    Thanks for the advice. Knowing how much thread is left should lighten mental stress contributing to the shifter stalk ED 😆 I did consider that, but think the stud will be trapped in place if the nut is removed after the unit is pushed on to the bell crank. However, since it is cold ;) the...

    GRP Short Shifter Install Notes and My thoughts

    Yes. It's the combined length from the eyelet center to the marking that I am going to put on the cable before removing anything. It's starting to look like I should first attach the black part separately, and then thread the new eyelet onto the cable, and finally attach the eyelet to the black...

    GRP Short Shifter Install Notes and My thoughts

    My thought was that the length of the center of the eyelet to to end of the threaded part (where you lock it with the squish nut) is shorter than the OEM eyelet. I don't have them side by side to compare at this moment, but if true, you would need to make sure to thread the new eyelet onto the...

    GRP Short Shifter Install Notes and My thoughts

    So, for anyone attempting the install, would this be a good way to ensure the rod hasn't moved? And don't forget to remove the tape (and paint?) when done.

    Japan - Emira Ownership (エミーラ納車とその後)

    I know there's nothing you/we can do but wait, so no intention of pressuring you. I was just wondering, when the goods finally arrive, would it be a fun and dumb idea for a 東北でトウフック (Tow Hook in Tohoku) outing? Technically, to be "Tohoku" it has to take place in Fukushima prefecture or north...

    AC temp control is useless (always cold no matter what)

    With the AC off (green LED off), try turning the fan (the other knob) off and then turning it on after a minute or so.
