    Best Alignment Settings for Sharper Turn-In & Heavier Steering on Emira?

    howdy everyone, I’m really enjoying my Emira but want to fine-tune the alignment to get sharper turn-in and a heavier steering feel. From what I’ve been reading, adjustments like front toe-out and more negative camber (within factory limits) might help. Before I take it to my shop, I’d like to...

    Lotus vs other brands on the Douchey-Cool scale

    I find Porsches (911s) very non-douchey, BUT.. I feel the owners can be quite snobby I usually give thumbs up to other unique-car drivers, but 911s people seem to want to ignore me.

    What car is more beautiful than an Emira?

    Yep, nothing beats a Nimbus emira my friend. This is the Way. I do kinda wish the side vents on the Emira were a little bit more aggressive.

    What car is more beautiful than an Emira?

    F8 is pretty but I like the emira more, more understated and less huge looking.

    Lotus Internal Build Quality — Has It Changed Over the Years?

    Yeah, I don't mean to talk bad about Lotus or anything. I love the car. I have an Emira. I am not sure what the Instagram guy had.

    Lotus Internal Build Quality — Has It Changed Over the Years?

    I recently watched an Instagram guy share his experience with owning a Lotus. He said he loved driving it, but also found some frustrating aspects. He mentioned that once, while doing a repair, he took the car apart and found what he described as a strange mix of parts that didn’t seem to be...

    JUBU and other topics, a combo thread

    I had a 992 GTS w PDK, tuned, so boring. Don't miss it at all. 911s will always have a place in my heart though.. but sadly, the new models are kinda soulless.

    Sketchy Experince on Offramp?

    It was going into a right turn off a highway I thought it would handle the sharp turn, but I almost drove off the road. It wasn't able to handle the sharp turn. So an understeer. No bumps. Regular highway road.

    Sketchy Experince on Offramp?

    Can you explain in any more detail what you're doing and feeling? Just taking an offramp at a fast speed but not super-fast speed. Not sure the specific MPH. But a speed that I thought the car could handle, but it didn't seem to be able to. Car just wouldn't handle the turn. Possibly my...

    Sketchy Experince on Offramp?

    Thanks guys, yeah I guess the main thing I'm saying is -- I feel confident with the car but not in this area. Would be cool to test it on a track and really get to know it.

    Sketchy Experince on Offramp?

    Has anyone else noticed their car feeling a little tricky on off-ramps ? I’ll be the first to admit I’m not the best driver in the world, but I’d put myself slightly above average... I absolutely love this car, feel really connected to it, and have a lot of confidence driving it. This isn’t...

    Newbie: Considering a switch - 911 to Emira

    I've had a 997. 991, and 992 GTS. Unloaded the GTS after the Emira. They're wonderful cars that seem built a lot better.. but they get more bloated and boring with each generation. Great daily drivers but don't seem to have the soul we all want and need. Never tried a GT3 though. I imagine I'd...

    🔧 FOR SALE: Used JUBU Syvecs Plug & Play ECU Kit + JUBU 440 Tune for Lotus Emira V6 (Manual)

    I'm not the most knowledgeable about mechanical things, but I'll do my best to help. 1.) I'm sorry, but I don't know the answer to that. However, I believe they could adjust it through a remote tune. I can ask them for you if you'd like. 2.) I'm not aware of a chart, sorry. 3.) The remote...

    🔧 FOR SALE: Used JUBU Syvecs Plug & Play ECU Kit + JUBU 440 Tune for Lotus Emira V6 (Manual)

    I dont know if its better. It creates more heat and might be harder on the car over time. It just depends on the path you want to take with the car. For someoone doing deeper long-term mods, the Jubu is possibly the better route. Its an entirely new ECU vs a piggyback mod. With that said, I...

    Paint/panel problems....never ending problem?

    I have it on my back panel near the lotus emblem. I don't want to give my car up for a month or whatever, especially since the dealerhship is 400 miles away and terrible to communicate with. Anyone know how long the whole process takes? I have been tempted to have a local shop just re-do it...

    What car is more beautiful than an Emira?

    I agree on those. I love those old Ferraris. My only flaw with the Emira is I think the rear could be improved a bit.

    🔧 FOR SALE: Used JUBU Syvecs Plug & Play ECU Kit + JUBU 440 Tune for Lotus Emira V6 (Manual)

    Hey Jon I switched to a JB4 setup. For my goals, I liked the simplicity — easy to install, and even easier to pull if the car ever needs warranty work. I also don't want to ever track the car or care to go much more nuts with it. That said, as you probably know, the JUBU is a replacement ECU...

    Forgive me as I have not reseached this too much.. but it seems the power of the Burger tune is less "down low". Do you think Burger could ever custom tweak it to give it more power in lower gears?

    Anyone else not like driving passengers in it?

    When I drive the car, its very personal and connected. Kind of like a man on a surfboard, becoming "one" in a zen-like state. And when I take someone in it, I feel its just too jarring and raw for them. Anyone else feel like this?
