I’m looking at getting a set of 18” rims for my Emira (will be fixing the park brake problem), probably go 9” wide (or more) on the front and 11” wide on the rear. Just looking for suggestions on what tyre sizes and model? Track tyres, not gonna use them on the road.

I got the follow information regards the OEM wheels: Front: 8.5x20 ET 57 Rear: 10.5x20 ET 54 is this correct? I was running 12mm spacers, so that means an effective ET45 on front and ET42 on rear. Spec’d new custom wheels based on the above, but new rears are poking out way more than they...

As per the subject, I’m trying to decide what offset to go with on a set of Aerie V2 rims. That’s my favourite style they offer I think. Currently running 12mm spacers all round. Standard spec is: Front: 8.5x20 ET 57 (ET45 with Spacers) Rear: 10.5x20 ET 54 (ET42 with spacers) The current setup...

I’ve recently installed an aftermarket exhaust. I was aware that the valve position is quite critical and that the motor has feedback sensors. I suspect there is a fundamental issue in the implementation of the OEM motor in the new exhaust valve system. Regards the valve motor, is it a proper...

I’m having a little work done on my Emira’s suspension. Does anyone have the torque specs for the various fittings?

Looking for advice regards wheel spacers on a standard emira (12mm spacers). Rear wheels look ok, just about flush, if I had the option, would probably push them in maybe 2mm, but not bad IMO. The fronts however do seem to be poking out a little much for my taste. I think a 6mm spacer on the...

Not sure if all versions of the Emira do this, but I’ve found the hazard lights activate when hard braking and stay on (ADAS equipped, China model I4). Has anyone else noticed this? Any way to disable it?

A few days ago they had a pretty big Event in China for Lotus, between 29-31st March, called Lotus Day, at a track about 2hrs drive from my home. Jenson Button was there, Colin Chapman’s son and various others came from the UK. Sounds great, but it’s invitation only. Not sure who thought it...

A new video from Carwow: I personally had a test drive in an Emeya R+, so same powertrain but in a lower car. The way it moved around on dry roads when giving it serious power was particularly lively. You’d definitely need to treat it with respect in the wet. I have a Tesla Model 3...

So my I4 is now run, so it can get the full beans. I’ve uploaded some videos.

Just noticed it:

As per the subject. Has anyone got any experience with using a lightweight lithium battery in your existing/previous cars? How much weight did you save? Any problems? Roughly what is the typical cost? Brands used? Thoughts on whether it’s worth the trouble/expense? It’s been popular on...

The model 3 performance is such a weapon with that instant power, good power levels and the ability to put down that power effortlessly even in the wet. Whilst I’m loving the looks of the Emira and with it being relatively exotic for a not so crazy price, but I can’t help but be concerned that...
