    'Centering' steering wheel top notch

    Situation solved here....and as the comments here advised it was an alignment issue....mostly front toe & some camber......both attributed to some settling of the new suspension (Nitrons) that went on a couple months ago. All good now.

    Is leasing an Emira a good idea?

    Lots of factors and this thread is great in explaining many.....it's a personal thing. For me, no. I keep my cars and I spend so much time & money modifying them to my taste, I just don't want to start all over every 3 yrs.

    Who has Milltek's Active Controller Installed?

    OK....all good here. More driving over the weekend and as GB and others have said....just leave it open all the time. Thanks for your help. I'm happy with the tunes the exhaust now plays. Install went well and, on reassemble, I only had a few parts in my tray that could not find a home :)...

    Who has Milltek's Active Controller Installed?

    Ok...installed this afternoon, and, again my new vehicle already has cat delete. So....not that impressed yet but I'll give it more time....and, of course, I'm probably doing something wrong. My goal was, at every start-up to NOT have to flip the mode lever once....then flip it again (to Sport)...

    Custom Floor Mats For Emira

    A request for 'rubber floor mats you can hose down'.....darn, I must have mis-moused onto an F150 Forum.....sorry, my bad :oops:.

    Who has Milltek's Active Controller Installed?

    Two simple/dumb questions from a newbie....if I may. 1. Do I assume correctly that in 100% Open the exhaust note will be similar to that in 'Track' mode?....(I do have 3rd cat delete) 2. If I will have no need to switch to 'Closed' or 'OEM' positions, will the car always be at 'Open' at start...

    'Centering' steering wheel top notch

    Yep....just my feel. Hands off the wheel and she runs true and straight, but as you and others have said, that's not good enough. Thanks.

    'Centering' steering wheel top notch

    Appreciate the feedback.....makes sense I guess. Obviously I was kinda hoping for something I could tackle....dealer is transport 180 away. Thanks again.

    'Centering' steering wheel top notch

    So....I've spent a lot of time viewing any/all posts regarding the OE steering wheel but can not find this. When driving straight & true, the top notch on the wheel is slightly to the right of 'straight up' position. It's obvious because it does not line up with the dash notch immediately behind...

    Newbie: Considering a switch - 911 to Emira

    Boy....the review of SJones is painful to read. 'paulecar'.....your point #2 probably nails it.....but if you get an SJones copy of an Emira then even a dealer next door won't be of much help. I'm also 160 miles from a dealer and only three months into ownership. I know I'll miss being able to...

    Is anyone here running Nitron Fastroad or Clubsport suspension?

    The car above has Fast Road on a Sport suspension and it feels about right for me on the street. I have a dedicated track car w/Ohlins and was not looking for anything that firm on the Lotus. To each his own but I think Nitron did a fair job with the Fast Road.

    Nitron Coilovers with front axle lift system

    Less. Yep, I didn't think to weigh them at the time, nor have a scale handy. Want to buy a set of OE's? Seriously, I've asked Greg to possibly weigh a set before they go out some time in the future......we'll see.

    Nitron Coilovers with front axle lift system

    OE Bilsteins weigh 13.3 lb each in the back........10.55 each in the front.

    Is anyone here running Nitron Fastroad or Clubsport suspension?

    For what it's worth , this is about a 10mm drop from a sport suspension car....spaced 12mm.

    Nitron Coilovers with front axle lift system

    Did not actually weigh them but had them in my hands......Bilsteins are in my garage. Nitrons are apparently made on demand so normally 3 weeks or so....mine took significantly longer because an out of country supplier (out of Great Britain) for one of the components was short on materials...

    Nitron Coilovers with front axle lift system

    No lift here but I'm really liking the Fast Road Nitrons. Only a few miles on them and they are firm as I like, yet still good for spirited fun. I am a Porsche guy with several and the dedicated track car has Ohlins. Ohlins are adjustable and can be cranked down very tight...both for...

    General Warning Triangle

    That did it guy....thank you so much. So...if were to guess it was a 'Service' reminder....and by the clock. 12 months since the car was turned on. I bought it w/ 830 miles but know it was an early 2024 delivery. 'SOLVED' I think. Back to breaking in this car. :) Love it so far.

    Red Exclamation Mark in dash

    Red....Amber....I am color blind. It was the "General Warning Triangle" ....which is apparently 'red', according to the manual. Any way...another thread on this and we have it solved....with the procedure of the car in the "ignition mode 1" and using the Reset procedure. Hopefully solved. Thank you!

    General Warning Triangle

    Thanks for trying to help....yes, it is the yellow "General Warning Triangle" and, clicking through the various fields in the monitoring screen I see " Service overdue" message. Well at 900 miles, and, I did the 1st oil change last week, this is probably a system generated message and not an...

    General Warning Triangle

    New here and still learning.......any help very much appreciated. How can I tell what the 'General Warning Triangle' is trying to tell me? Les than a 1,000 miles on the car but 170 of those would be to the closest dealer. Any suggestions much appreciated.

    Red Exclamation Mark in dash

    Well....just went down and moved the car and today the 'General Warning Triangle' has again, gone away. Hope the issue has healed itself this time....whatever it was :) .

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    Finally in my garage and added to my stable...after mods since Feb. acquisition. As a Pcar guy, lots to learn yet about these cars. Appreciate this forum.

    Red Exclamation Mark in dash

    I think I have successfully reset the 'scheduled service' (using the 'Ignition Mode 1' procedure) and the triangle did go away, for a short time. But is back. I have checked for CEC's and there are none. Does anyone know how do we determine what else is causing the triangle? Thanks in advance.

    Wheel arch fasteners that don't connect to anything?

    As an aside.....I enjoy the light-heated attitude you guys have with respect to the Lotus brand. I'm new here, from many years in the Pcar world, and some things I notice here would require significant forgiving patience over there in Pcar land. "....You never know with these cars if they are A)...

    GRP Forged wheels look awesome

    Good move.....congrats! I'm not a fan of wheels that detract from a beautiful body....especially in slow-turning settings.....say parking lots of slow traffic. All my wheels are custom and true to that idea, but I understand that wheels are a very personal thing so respect any owners views...

    Diamond Cut - Curbed Wheel

    Sorry about your wheel. And...excuse my ignorance but, on that close-up shot, is that texture in the clear alloy what is supposedly called "diamond cut" ? All I ever noticed was the brighter alternating rim (and spoke) sections that appeared to be brushed or polished rather than painted but I've...

    Is anyone here running Nitron Fastroad or Clubsport suspension?

    Sorry...slightly different topic but has anyone done a video on Nitron conversion?......align & corner balance for that matter.

    Removal of fugly warning stickers on Sun Visors?

    What to do? 911T plus Base Emira

    So many different opinions here...I guess it's a personal taste & impression that counts. My 911's are definitely GT's and as a very, very, new Emira owner my impressions are that the Emira is a 'sports car' and the only comparison I have in Pcars is my 1st gen (986) Boxster back in 97. A broad...

    Red Exclamation Mark in dash

    Are we referring to the "System status & warning lamp" which is immediately to the right of the seatbelt light (on start up)?.....if so, on my car, when I pull up the menu it says the light is telling me to schedule service....at 850 miles? I'll look for a thread on how to reset that.
