2016 Alfa Romeo 4C spider. I got it back in 2020 for a great offer, did all mods that were available, had a ton of fun driving it on roads and on tracks. Replacing it with a Lotus Emira feels like a big upgrade. The 4C is more like a toy car while the Emira is a true all-around sport car. No...

Good discussion. Here is my take on this from slightly different prospective. People tend to support their choices and decisions which is normal to see, and I 'm no different. And that's the beauty of the forums. At the end everyone is entitled to make his own decision, the way he feels best...

I will share my experience so far with JUBU as well for anyone following this. As a new owner of Lotus Emira, I wanted to see all options in the aftermarket for track upgrades. while there are some great vendors around, JUBU seemed to me to be the most professional team in this aspect. Mainly...

I have installed the JUBU460 kit two months ago, and I am planning on going forward with the JUBU530 kit hopefully this October. So far all is great, we had one issue during the first track time which was solved immediately after, everything else was good. If anyone wants more details, you can...

Hill Climb Competition: I had another racing weekend here, and it was the time to put the car again under a real test for the performance. The Emira now have few mods running like: - JUBU460 kit - JUBU cooling kit - JUBU Front/Rear brake cooling ducts - JUBU Titanium wheel bolts - JUBU Rollbar...

Installing the Rollbar: - JUBU Rollbar The installation of the JUBU Rollbar was a bit challenging. They have supplied all the materials needed with the instructions, I wish they had more pictures though to go through some of the steps. We did the installation without removing the seats. It...

Solving the Problem: When modifying cars, things sometimes go wrong, it is a journey that you need to learn it along the way and evolve with it, unfortunately for my case it was during a track day. A remote session with JUBU team was set to check the issue that I have encountered. Setting the...

Second Mod list: - JUBU460 kit - JUBU cooling kit Installing feedback : Before ordering I was in touch with JUBU team to discuss what is needed and expected for my application. Remember I like to track this car and participate in some track days and Time Attack completions here in my area...

Hi @hellasf1 and congrats on your JUBU460 ! I have done the same thing on my Emira, and I will share my feedback on my journal post as well, but pretty much it is the same feedback as you have explained. However, on track this weekend, I have faced an issue with a power loss, suddenly went to...

Thanks, I have only changed the brake fluid. The brake pads/rotors are OEM. They are performing fine, even though we can always upgrade to a better setup. I am really keen on the CCB kit that is offered by @Warren-RB and we have exchanged few emails so far, but I'm still studying this move. I...

Thanks, and those were not my cars (M2/Supra/Carrera) just some other drivers with us on the same event I mentioned as a reference. Maybe I wasn't clear on that one. The stickers belong to the event organizers; we had two on each side and two orange stickers front and back for the car number...

Thanks for the feedback with your own experience. I do believe I gave it a good clutch kick all the way, but I will keep this in mind the next time I'm in the track as maybe trying to do it fast, I missed that.

I got it from @GRP

Second Track Feedback with Mods: Shifting from 1-2 in this car was not the best feeling in a transmission, I felt like that I don't know how to drive a manual. All other gears were smoother. i was surprised that the short shifter fixed that! I had the short shifter installed with the shortest...

First Track feedback: I was surprised how the car handled really well out of the factory, mind you it was the first time I even switched it to Track Mode. The sound of the exhaust is really good to the point where you wish you can keep it that way forever. Steering was responsive, as I started...

Hi ! This is just a space to share my journey with My Lotus Emira, hoping it will add some insights to this great forum. A quick background on me, I have been with sport cars for about 10 years now. I have a thing for tracks and fun cars, and I causally do around 15 track activities per year...

This kit looks amazing, when I went to the website to order one, I noticed it says (due to the coonstraint of caliper pad sizes we do not recommended this setup for heavy tracking). I do multiple track days and flying laps, is that considered heavy tracking? I really want to understand the...

UPDATE ! The Emira has finally arrived. And getting ready to be delivered. Thanks for your kind words, everyone, I was a bit surprise that we have some previous 4C owners coming from the same background. I guess great minds think alike. Moving forward, I will do my own Journal thread for all...

Well, I'm hoping the performance of the Lotus is considerably better. The 4C has few issues in stock form if you want to track it (So is a lot of sport cars). Challenging alignment, unjustified turbo lag (at least for me), lack of power, etc. On normal street use, it is mostly fun car and can...

Hi guys ! It has been few months going through different topics and learning a lot about the Emira here in the forums. So many insights and testimonials that helped me made few decisions including buying the Lotus Emira. So Thanks ! Just a quick background about me, I have never owned a Lotus...
