We have a set in production now for a client. It is expected mid Sept.

No experiments were run to choose the spring - just years of experience. Guy Evans and I spoke about what could work as a starting point. 25+ years of producing/tuning suspension for mid engine cars was the basis for his recommendation. The Emira Turbo fundamentals are the same as other...

Peter, thanks for the write up. I was impressed with the car. She turns in well and holds the line easily - even in the bumps. I think this set-up will work for the vast majority of Emira owners. We made several adjustments to land on settings that we (and now you) are happy with. The...

Those look great! They'll perform even better. Thanks for posting pics

Our initial batch are in production. We test fit these 4 bars and confirmed fitment. The remaining bars will be built. We should see finished parts by early/mid Sept. Order now and save $100: HERE

We order through a Lotus Dealer in the UK. We don't have access to Lotus directly in the US or UK as they are obligated to sell through their Dealer network.

We will test here first before entering production. Realistically, this will be a 2026 product launch.

Here are pix of silver hats. They are also quite cool.

We've been at a stand still waiting for parts. We decided to order some parts from England as the Lotus USA seems unable to secure some of the items we need.

Here's the weights:

Yes, thanks. We will get you a quote. Our website is unable to provide international shipping quotes so we do it manually. info@inokinetic.com is a good way to reach us.

Yes, we have essentially used this construction on the Elise/Exige/Evora/4C/Atom2/Atom3/Solstice/Sky/Drakan and more... Please post pix once you mount them!

S111 Hardware kit is design for the Elise/Exige not the Emira. I showed the hardware stack just for illustrative purposes. You will reuse the Emira factory hardware. This is the inboard side of the seat. Here is the outboard side. You can see the B23 tab in both pix.

We have finalized the design and are in production with our new Emira harness bar the QUADloc. This bar is the most innovative solution available offering easier fitment, adjustability for driver size, light-weight, full access to the rear shelf and most importantly a safe package for the...

I will post up images later today/tomorrow.

The hats are aluminum so won't rust. The iron rotors are zinc plated so should resist rusting for a long time. Of course the rotor face will rust if left for any period of time but that is not important as the pads will grind off the rust immediately on the first drive. This shade is like our...

Gold and Silver hatted (is that a word?) ULTRAdiscs have arrived from Giro. We only have a few Gold left as they are limited. Our standard colors will be Silver.

Have a look at our G-loc pads: HERE They behave like Pagid as they are an adherent pad. We have been using them successfully on Elise/Exige/Evora for 15+yrs. We stock a street pad and a track compound.

Under. The hardware Lotus use are somewhat captured. The inboard receptacle is pretty cool as it attached with two steel cables. Nice and flexible yet really strong. See picture of the inboard receptacle. The Schroth bolt-in tab. We have spec'd these for Lotus applications for 20yrs...

With our 6ft Driver with the bar in the lowest position. The belt angle is at -10.5deg. Within Schroth's spec. If we raise the bar, this angle will be reduced even further.

We confirmed the height adjustability - approx 1.25". This will allow ideal shoulder belt orientation based on a persons torso length. Note the position of the bar vs the rear trim on the above two pictures. You can clearly see how much the bar has moved from the lowest to highest...

Installing a harness is our next step now that the bar design is complete and in production. The QUADloc offers slight adjustment so you can position the bar higher or lower. For most drivers, the belt angle will be at zero or horizontal. I will get pictures soon.

Fitting the Schroth 4pt is our next step now that our QUADloc Harnessbar is in production. We will post up pix once we have done it. This picture show the 3pt pivot connected to the stock location with our QUADloc. Yes, a HANs device is a smart device to use on track. These 4pt Schroth are...

We have landed on our QUADloc Harnessbar cost. We will run a Sale Price of $699.99 until we get stock. Save $100 by pre-ordering now: HERE. We expect to be shipping in mid to late Sept. I'm pretty excited about this bar and hope that you will be as well!

You are correct, the Schroth ASM 4pt belts are the safest on the market. We have safely installed them onto Lotus Elise/Exige/Evora for years with excellent results. We offer hardware (for the Elise/Exige)to make installing these belts much easier and allow you to retain the 3pt stock belt...

The Emira has a Roll Bar that would prevent the roof from caving in - partially. This bar is located close enough to the occupants heads that it would protect them in a roll over. I started doing track days in the early 90s with BMWCCA so have seen normal unibody cars with crushed roofs. The...

The stock covers fit perfectly. See below.

I forgot to reveal the first innovation of our QUADloc harnessbar. The adjustability that our bar features is unique. This image shows how we have split the car in the center. We've included an internal sleeve that makes the bar even stronger. The penalty is that it will be a little bit...

We have successfully test fit the latest version into the Emira. It does not move! And the shelf can still be used. I did some math on our Anti-Rotation mechanisms: Primary anti-rotation: 1 on each side (two total) Each of the bolts that secure this mechanism will take 29,000lbs of force...

The metal plate shown in the above post may be your best bet. Here is another pic....

Yes, MM are an excellent company with superb carbon fiber tech/capability and suspension tech. Those DSSV can be found in many cool cars including: FordGT, Purosangue, Colorado Bison, Miata Cup, etc. They are the most sophisticated mechanical shocks out there. MM has supported several OE efforts.

Yes, and it matters to a few other purists. Sadly there are not enough of us to financially make the business case for Lotus - sustainable. Do you remember seeing e30 M3s and NSXs sitting unsold on Dealer lots back in the 90s? I do. These realities cause auto companies to look for other...

Frankly, I don't know how anyone is installing these mounts without removing the engine! I started a thread to get some feedback: HERE I appreciate any advice you guys may have...

OK, sounds good. Yes, our shiftR is on the development plate for the Emira - 2026 or 2027!

Hmmm...let me look into this as we have fit it to two Emiras. Thanks for the heads up.

LOL, the subframe was sent with edge protection for shipping. We left some of it in place...for now!
