This is excellent data and I'm very glad as that was my main reluctance in running a harness. I suspected that Lotus would've integrated a roll bar as this car was designed for track use, but didn't have any data to back that up. Thank you for confirming, Greg.

In addition, it is necessary to use a Head Restraint system like a HANS device to prevent basal skull facture should an impact occur. The racing harness will keep your body secured, but your head can move forward if not restrained. This is the reason why all racing orgs mandate Head restraint...

Evasive manuevers!

There are various factors that are considered for each policy holder AND THEN there's also your location that seems to make a very big impact. This is likely why we see such a big delta between those reported. To add, I've had preminums change significantly after underwriting changes the way...

I believe the challenge is that it's not well documented what's actually causing the issue. Lots of theories, from both owners and Lotus, but nothing that's been officially communicated - so preventative remedies is just a guess at this point.

I don't have firsthand experience, but there have been forum members with full PPF with paint blistering. It doesn't appear that PPF will prevent this.

Same here. I did it through Progressive online for the quote, then called in to finalize and submit payment. I'm in Texas.

Thank you for confirming your experiences. Looks like anyone looking for that data will have to wire in a pressure sensor.

This is what's referenced in the Drive Modes Explained thread: https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/drive-modes-explained-and-lotus-dynamic-performance-management.288/ 2. SPORT Engine maximum rev limit: +200rpm Throttle progression: increased Exhaust valve behaviour at idle and when driving...

Yes, if you look at the center screen, there's an option to completely turn off ESC under track mode.

@OppositeLock as part of your OBDII data acquisition, is oil pressure captured? That'll be convenient, otherwise I'd like to wire in some pressure sensors to data log.

No, but just thinking about what Lotus did for the Evoras and equipped some variants with baffled pans. Oil starvation is something I've had to contend with in my race cars and I don't have any data on Emiras with track focused <200 TW tires on track.

@OppositeLock are you still on the stock oil pan?

Tool ;)

Keen to hear your experience on the Nitrons. You opted for spring rates in between fast road and clubsport right? What tires will you be running?

That I can't comment on, but this is very helpful nonetheless!

This is just speculation, but I think the TSB ID could be "25143" or 131-25143? Do you have a V6 or I4? Example of other TSBs/Recalls: This is useful for Lotus service centers that aren't particularly on top of everything, may be valueable for owners to refer to TSB numbers. Thank you for...

Atleast Lotus got this right :ROFLMAO:

Did they happen to provide the campaign ID or TSB number for the DIM & CEM updates?

Welcome!

Also take into consideration that the Emira is still a relatively new car to the market and it will need more time for support to mature with the product. This is especially true when it's lower volume. I am confident the mechanical hardware of the car is still very much user serviceable and...

Beautiful! Thank you for the confirmation!

Checking with the hive if anyone here has/is using multiple sets of wheels (Street/Track or Winter/Summer) on their Emira? I am inquiring if the TPMS sensors are hardcoded to the car and only 1 set can be programmed? Or it's not hardcoded and as long as you use the correct Lotus TPMS sensors...

Thank you for the review and feedback. Very helpful for everyone in the market between these 2.

Some of us met up today at Giant Leap coffee. Pretty good turn out and a great group of guys!

I think this is going to be very subjective and if you're really sensitive to noise, the best course of action is to take a ride in one with the 3rd cat delete to assess. The exhaust note is more pronounced, but I don't feel it really adds that much more noise or drone. It also depends heavily...

Perhaps it may add rarity, but that doesn't bode well for Lotus support/service. Atleast for those that actually want to drive their cars and not just have it sit as a collector piece. If dealers don't have incentive to sell the brand they're going to pull out. I don't see this being a positive...

I agree, the documentation is very opaque. It would be quite valueable if we're able to successfully access the Emira's systems and actually perform dealer level calibrations and or updates. It's not cheap, but at the same time, not that out of reach either.
