Thanks to the DIY - Oil Change Reference for 2GR-FE thread, I was able to put together an up-to-date How-to Video for the 3.5L V6 Lotus Emira. Thanks to all those who participated in that thread, which paved the way for this video. Here's a quick list of everything you will need to change the...

I'm digging this Titanium dive watch from Christopher Ward.

I like the setting of this! I need to cruise up there for one of these sometime.

I have been there many times! With this installation, you shouldn't have any surprises now. It's more of just wrestling it into place.

Thank you! Four-post lifts are pretty reasonable, considering they can give you room for an extra vehicle and help save you on maintenance and installation costs. Especially if you can catch one on sale.

That looks stunning! I want to add the CT Carbon kit, but I'm worried that my country roads might be too rough for it. I already have to plan my route around town so I don't scrape the front bumper. You might want to consider the short-shift kit and a lithium battery.

If your cat delete pipe fit into the muffler inlet pipe easily, then you might want to double-check it next time you have the rear diffuser off. Mine fit like that when I first installed it, but after I torqued down the inlet pipe clamp, I could still slide the pipe out. It can't actually go...

The GRP pipe.

I don't have any experience with Xeric watches, but that is a cool-looking watch! I think it would pair well with your Lotus.

I will keep an eye out for that! Your install video also makes me want to install the short shifter mod.

I'm working on that next!

I did! The video makes it look easy, haha! I had to spread the installation out over three days because I wasn't expecting to have to use a pipe expander.

I hope you won't need it. I'm sure I got an early production model where the muffler inlet swage was new and expanded mine larger than most. Even if you do, you at least know what to expect and can make the proper adjustment.

Here's my installation video for the GRP third cat delete pipe and a Milltek active valve exhaust controller. If you plan to install the cat delete pipe, I would suggest you watch this first. It will save you a LOT of time and you will be prepared if you have to make any adjustments for a proper...

I installed the GRP 3rd Cat Pipe Delete - install video coming soon!

Watching the oil pressure gauge after an oil change helps with my OCD. I will just have to rely on the dummy oil pressure switch to tell me if something is wrong.

So technically, another 0.3qts and it will be fully topped off. Thanks!

I weighed my Emira to establish a baseline weight before adding go-fast bits. With a full tank of fuel, it weighed 3,267 lbs. I thought it was interesting to see the corner weights. Here's how the corner weights change with me in the car. I weigh right about 177 lbs.

Is there an oil pressure gauge hidden somewhere? I scrolled through all the options and didn’t see one.

I put six full US quarts in and my dipstick shows the oil level halfway between the two dots. Should I order another quart of the Pennzoil 0W-40 to get it up to the full dot? It seems like everyone was good with just the six quarts. Maybe it’s more like 6.5 quarts to fill it completely full?

I will try to get a picture of it outside when I take it out next.

I've noticed that the Emira electronics still run for a while after the doors are closed. I've even caught it still connected to Carplay and playing audio from my phone long after I've closed the doors. I don't lock the doors on my cars when they are in the garage, but I've started always...

Very cool! Thanks for sharing!

I finally got around to ditching the heavy chromed dealership license plate frame for a simple black silicone frame and added the rubber U Channel trim around the plastic edges of the seats. https://a.co/d/39C1R01 https://a.co/d/i5KVAYa

I went ahead and purchased some Race Ramps Scale Ramps. I figured they would be handy for jacking low ground clearance vehicles and make it easier to drive up on my scales. https://a.co/d/gezJCv3

So this Vevor air bag jack in its deflated position is about an eighth of an inch to a quarter of an inch too tall to fit under the Emira jack pad. I think the three-quarter of an inch rubber pad that comes on the airbag jack could be replaced for a shorter rubber pad so it would work.

I love the exposed suspension and exhaust from the back of the Nilu. It's a masterclass in supercar design!

Don't give up hope just yet!
