    Lotus Emira V6 ECU Tune - Bench Flash

    I'm interested. Someone else asked this, but I assume that the increased redline will not be visible on the tach. Not sure that would be an issue for me but would be good to know. Not having that nasty cutoff would be nice. We should see if a dealer (maybe Gator) can provide a price on a bulk...

    Emira ECU Flash Tuning is Now Possible (~510HP Turbo)

    Actually, for the most part, one thing I've enjoyed about this forum community is that generally people have been nice to each other and trying to help/benefit the platform. There are a few threads where folks have become a bit snarky but it's not the norm IMO. I was not a fan of some of the...

    DIY: V6 Manual Transmission Fluid Change

    I changed mine to Redline a few months back and I swear I can feel the difference, much smoother/slicker.

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    Btw, it's not a knock on VF, I think what they are doing is great. I just don't want their logo on such a prominent feature of the car. I would tell any enthusiast though what the product is, and its benefits.

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    V6 Supercharged is all I would want. I would not purchase it with a VF Logo on it. We all know it's an Emira, and a Lotus. What most people don't likely know, is that it's supercharged, or a V6.

    i thought there were no tariffs under a certain value. I bough a shift knob from the UK and it did not have a tariff and was about the same price. Maybe it's different by country though.

    Rear license plate frame/holder (USA)

    I have used this frame on several of my cars. I originally bought it from IND for a BMW but it is available direct from the manufacturer. I have painted it several times based on the car it was on. Very well made and slim. It also shows most of the plate area...

    Replacement doors after audio!?

    Honestly, I've thought about the same thing. It was a lot of work to install that sound deadener to the interior of the exterior door panel. Doesn't seem much different to applying a film to the exterior of the door panel. I hope I never have to deal with either though. Strange, but we are...

    Radio Silence

    I purchased my car at that dealer and would not recommend them from an acquisition perspective. I did however bring the car for service a few months back and that went smoothly. I'd find another dealer if I purchase another Lotus.

    Emira JB4 Tuning Now Available for I4 & V6 Cars!

    Just an aside. That fuse box cover is not white. It has just not had the white protective film removed. I removed mine when I had it apart to install sound deadening. I also removed some other films that were left on during the assembly process on other areas.

    Midlife CARisis Gets a V6M

    Depending on which short shift kit is installed you are likely missing the OEM part. An adjustment to the cables may correct the issue you are having. Also, there may be multiple settings on the short shift kit. You would want to investigate that also. If you can provide a picture of the part at...

    Slight right pull under acceleration

    When I was breaking in my car, I would take it on the highway and do some pretty decent pulls to load the engine and then let it reduce speed in gear to help the pistons seat, etc. On acceleration, I would feel an odd sensation of the car trying to veer. I think now it may be a characteristic of...

    Shift Knob Replacement

    I feel your pain, these things are indeed hard to come by. My advice is to order (and pay for) the shift knob if you have not done that. Thats what I did and even though it was a long wait they eventually fulfilled the order. I'm not sure who makes these knobs for Lotus, but I am sure it's a...

    I finally received the wooden shift knob from Lotus in the UK that I ordered last December. I was not sure I would get it. It got stuck here in Chicago customs for several weeks.

    Can’t connect CarPlay and Bluetooth at the same time

    This does not work, you can't connect to Bluetooth separately than CarPlay. Carplay uses Bluetooth. It's confusing. Long press on the voice icon will access the CarPlay commands. Took me a while to learn that one.

    Is that Matte Gunmetal? Do you think that Aerie would be able to do a PVD Black Chrome finish. I am having a very hard time with a great wheel color for Nimbus. I've always been a huge fan of BBS FI-R wheels. They look great.

    New Everyday Driver video - 1 year of ownership, and v6 compared to i4

    Very good video, they brought out some key differences that go beyond just the engine choice. They make a lot of sense. Only thing I can think that would make it better would have been if they were both on the same suspension setup.

    Emira 3.5L CARB ECM Software removal

    Obviously, it would be nice to know what was added/changed to the software to make the Emira Carb compliant. My thought was, it would just be good to have the software as it was designed originally. To do this properly, I'm sure it would require that Lotus make the changes and have them support...

    Anyone with HRE's?

    I like the concept of trying to replicate the wheels in that Lotus drawing. I wonder though if they would/could have the same look based on how they need to fit. Of the wheels you have pictured, I think the Vossen wheels are closer, however the spokes of the wheels in the drawing are wider...

    Oil change, and Transmission fluid change at my local Indy. Amsoil Signature Series and Redline GL4. $437 total labor with tax, $165 for oil $240 for Transmission. I supplied the products. I feel the shift is smoother now but need to drive it some more. Dealer wanted $675 for an oil change...

    VF Tuner for the Lotus Emira

    Thanks for the announcement, this looks very encouraging. I did look at your website and Facebook. I'm not quite sure though what you will be offering.

    This would be the main reason that I would install the OBD connection. I don't think we know for certain whether installing it would enable an enhanced real-time tune adjustment based on variables that it gathers from the OBD2 information.

    I just had the first service completed, all warranty work. They did the A/C fix and a campaign to address water in the charcoal canister where they take it apart and cut the hose to 75MM. No water was found in my canister. They wanted $675 for an oil change, pass. They also made 7 (maybe 8)...
