Some ideas for improvement: - The green cuts may not be needed as they could fit the arms into the cutaways in the control arms, someone can experiment with that. - The tie rod cutout could be optimized to remove less material and more of a U shape so less cutting can be done.

Note this image just shows a temporary mockup and not the final zip tie positions. Reference below for the guide of where to zip tie and cut. Turns out the 997 GT3 brake ducts fit really well on the Emira control arms and hang down the perfect amount to scoop air and redirect it into the...

Following up on my own post going on 2 years ago. The Thinkware iVolt Mini definitely fits here with room to spare.

Very nice alternative!

So I went and ordered both inner door handle mechanisms and replaced my broken one today. If you ever have to DIY this, feel free to DM me for tips. I won’t create a DIY for this because it’s honestly a huge pain in the ass and there are quite a few challenges as the instructions in the service...

If it makes you feel any better these probably weigh less than the OEM dampers lol. In the end though, the Emira is not an exige replacement.

You can contact them directly to order: george.mejia@nitron.com

Nitron elec-TRON R1 (ER1) and Nitron elec-TRON R3 (ER3) are now both available. There are 6 settings programmed into the Nitron Damper Control Unit. 1-3 are in a fixed position with no active damping but perform like comfort, sport and sport plus. 4-6 are brought to life by the Nitron DCU...

I cycled through the suspension stroke to the degree I could with the suspension still in place and it seems to clear fine. What doesn’t clear is contact with the tie rod it just gently rubs, I will run it for a week and then dismount, see where the rub points are and trim. I’ll provide a DIY...

Wait, you mean you can finish a car??? First I’ve ever heard of it 😂. I have so many more things that are going to happen!

No these are actually Porsche 991 (997) GT3 parts. They’re cheap though, $30-$50 for both depending where you shop from. I actually ended up buying three pairs.

997 GT3 Brake Ducts Idk how well this works but they’re cheap and I saw this on @owenxguo ‘s car on IG. I’m still working out what parts need to be modified, a couple of tabs, drill some holes, and a bit of a trim for the tie rods, and some vinyl coated metal zip ties and this should be good...

Yeah I can just live with it for the time being and I'll have to take a deeper look into the service manual on how to replace them.

I'm not sure if any of you will ever need this, but if you need measurements for making custom wheels and minimizing clearance from the spokes to the caliper anywhere you're going to need measurements.

I don't ever want to see a dealer.

Sure seems like it, I'd like to get in there and see if the spring is just dislodged or actually broken or if there's a surrounding piece of plastic that snapped holding the spring. Seems that Lotus knows about this issue and has updated the part, so I ordered both door handles and will just...

Looks like it's P/N 8890572619 which was then discontinued and replaced by P/N 8899012919. Called the following: HDL ASSY-FRT LH DOOR OTR OPENING

Don't think so, it looks like this:

Anyone know how to get at this part to examine the spring? Looked through the service manual and it wasn’t obvious.

Start the car first so the unit has power, connect over bluetooth with the app, configure what you want.

Don't think piggybacks work like that.

It means Terry at BMS thought I was safe to use the Map 2 meant for 93 octane fuel with the shitty gas we got in California + an octane booster. AFRs richen up as load and RPMs climb and then lean out as you let off the gas.

Posted in the install thread but here is the 93 map with ACN91 + Boostane Shot, Terry @ BMS gave it the OK based on logs.

93 Octane map on ACN91 with a bottle of boostane shot, Terry at Burger tuning just OKed it.

Glad to hear it! Looking forward to seeing what product offering you have in the near future.

Thank you guys for working to make that an option, getting through the firewall is a serious pain in the ass.

I hope for the amg guys here that the gearbox update is a different and noticeable one and that it can be updated for FE cars.

I’m guessing by the language of “compression mount for the manual gearbox” they just mean stiffer transmission mounts. The 1-2 will likely still be exactly the same is my bet. You can achieve the same thing with urethane inserts that greg sells on his site.

Lotus themselves said it, I’m not sure how much more authoritative you can get. This was from the Lotus in the last investor meeting. Doesn’t mean they can’t release an SE first.

Better with a video:

I think a little loctite blue would help
