    What did you do to your Emira today?

    I see a similar thing with music. Some people get very tribal about their genre but the true enthusiasts can appreciate almost anything. I think it’s more about being an a-hole. And those exist in every generation. I got a Miata in the early 2000s and I got a ton of flack about it being a chick...

    Coolant additives to decrease engine temperatures

    Is there some kind of negative trade off with these additives or why are they not manufacturer recommended and/or already included in the coolants? Can’t imagine it’s just cost when some are so cheap.

    OEM Lotus Emira Red Brake Caliper Set – Excellent Condition, Low Mileage

    I’m not changing my caliper colour, but if I was, this sounds like the way.

    OEM Lotus Emira Red Brake Caliper Set – Excellent Condition, Low Mileage

    I guess if you get $2000 out of the old ones, the price might be comparable and you have factory level paint.

    Sorry, I don’t. I saved the one that came off my car.

    OEM Lotus Emira Red Brake Caliper Set – Excellent Condition, Low Mileage

    I gather you spent $4400 ordering your preferred colour from Lotus then? Did you price out painting your original calipers instead?

    Engine block discoloration/staining?

    I’d probably go at it with a wire brush and then spray the ACF-50. I don’t know though. Someone else may have a better suggestion.

    Engine block discoloration/staining?

    Oxidation/rust. I sprayed mine with this stuff as soon as I got it home per recommendations on this forum. Seems to be working.

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    it was held on by one screw and 2 of those plastic push pins. I was able to reuse the screw but the push pins were toast. I ordered a replacement pack off Amazon. It wasn’t too bad.

    reattached this little aero piece that got ripped off when I drove over a board. :confused:

    I don’t know how you’re looking at that film on your display. I get wanting to protect it but that would drive me nuts.

    Evija door hinges for Emira?

    There are aftermarket systems that work with frameless doors. That would be a lot cheaper than trying to draw from the Evija parts bin anyways. They all have to open outward first for clearance / latch function, which kind of defeats the point.

    Evija door hinges for Emira?

    Uh… like a direct replacement? Not a chance. A lot of design/development goes into something like that.

    Yeah but that math isn’t mathing. 315+54 is 369

    The R model too? Double awesome! Canada I think would be a non-starter unfortunately.

    Nice. Not comparable, how? Does the Alpine feel considerably lighter?

    Thank you! That was from a road trip my wife and I took to Kelowna to visit some friends. Unfortunately, the roads where I live are decidedly more boring.

    Here’s the old car. 10AE with a Jackson Racing Supercharger. I still have it because at 300 000 km, I wasn’t going to get much for it anyways.

    This was an excellent forum suggestion, thanks!!

    Hmmm. I have the v6 so I don’t think that’s my issue. I have to turn it up quite loud for the low range to sound balanced.

    Do you agree with the “the insanely uneven frequency response shift when volume increases.”? I’m not an audiophile and I noticed that in my car immediately.

    USA/Canada Delivery Thread

    I’m confused. It says 2006 to 2025. Makes me think each point is a year, but that would mean things peaked in 2021.
