If you're coming form an Elise I think the Emira will feel more like a GT car.

Could take long enough to do. Not sure if the rear under tray has to come off to do the back? You can do the front without removal but there is not much camber adjustment available.

I just set them 14 clicks rear, 12 clicks front and went for a test drive. I was happy enough with the feel of the rebound speed after taking them for a spirited test drive. I haven't had a chance to try full soft or hard. I would rate them just as comfortable as touring on everything but...

So I decided to bite the bullet and get a set of Nitron one-way coilovers for my Emira. I’ve been looking at these for a long time now. I have the touring suspension and it’s way too soft for me. I went for the Nitron fast road setup which is slightly hard than the OEM sports suspension on the...

🤣 I verified it before uploading.

Asked AI to create a geometry quick reference guide for me…

Totally. I've been looking at the weight of an Alpine a110 at 1100kg and cant understand how the Emira is 350kg heavier so started looking into weight savings. Like you said, too much cost.

I had this in the car I test drove and also mine. Don't seem to have the problem anymore. Maybe I just got used to the shift timing.

How many miles have you on your cars? My gearbox seems pretty slick after 4k miles.

I think the car needs less weight rather than more power. Seats, doors, rear hatch are pretty heavy.

Did you sell your parts or are they listed anywhere?

I'm on touring now but thinking of going the same setup as you. Would be great to have a more indepth review once your had a change to drive with comparision to standard. There seems to be little info out there in terms of Emira suspension setup.

Sometimes the tease is better than the whole thing. 🥹 iPhone pic after a clean. 🧼

Maybe the Emira is not the car for you if you find the suspension too bumpy. The touring setup is already quite soft. The only way to get more comfort is to get softer springs. I’m not sure if it’s an option but maybe worth contacting Nitron to see if they will sell a set of their 1 way shocks...

No, gear backlash. When on an off throttle there is a small amount of play in the gears in first gear.

Frosty Morning 🥶

No issues with high speed stability here. Drove V6 and 2.0t

I’m trying to figure out if I have a problem or not so asking has anyone with a V6 manual got much gearbox backlash in first gear at low speed when going on and off throttle? I’m hearing a clicking sound from the gears on/off throttle from the backlash.

I wouldn’t say that. I removed the panel on mine to try to find a rattle. Used a plastic pry tool from eBay and it came off quite easily.

A110

Hi Andrea. Did your fix stop the knocking sound at the end of the steering lock or is this still here? My car has the knocking sound at the end. I've heard this is normal but not sure. I've also a creaking noise that happening when I am steering and going over uneven orad surfaces.

This is most likey the air vent flapping and not the sub clipping. I've fix my vent and added some sound deadening and the bass is solid to max volume

Personally, I don't see why there so much fuss about hydraulic power steering.

Ok. Took the seat back apart. There are two air bladders on top of each other so both inflation buttons will move out the same area which is pointless. I positioned one bladder upside down and higher up the seat (circled red) and put a plastic panel (not pictured) behind it just like the lower...

:-(( I thought the fault was about the air randomly blowing hot and cold rather than 1x vent blowing colder. Looks like I’ll have to book it in. I think I already had the fix (rubber mat) while in for my last service too.

Hmmm, it seems the lumbar support is meant to be adjustable up and down according to the manual. Maybe another common fault?!

When my climate is set to auto is nearly always blows cold air out the windscreen vent no matter what the temp is set to

Hi. I’ve been playing around with the lumbar supports in my seats but the 4x way lumbar buttons only seem to adjust 2x ways - two of the buttons inflate the same spot, two of the buttons deflate the same spot. This is the same in both of my seats. Is this normal?

yes, wear was totally even

I had the same tyres on my GR Yaris and they were done after 3k miles. No tracking driving.

So I read an article earlier today (can't remember the source, I think it was one of the Emira Facebook groups) with an interview from a Lotus employee and they said that it's not just different spring and damper settings for the sports/touring chassis, but also different bushings and geometry...
