    Pedal Commander or Sprint Booster for Lotus Emira Turbo I4

    Nice! That’s all that we really can do in Colorado unless someone goes through the effort of CARB approval. There is one supercharger I could get for the c7 that has is but otherwise you can’t change the ECU. During emissions they run the check sum number on the ECU and the current flash has to...

    Pedal Commander or Sprint Booster for Lotus Emira Turbo I4

    This is an incorrect take on this. When you are using a car without pedal commander and an electronic controlled throttle the driver demand tables are indicating the throttle body opening response. The driver demand tables take the percentage of throttle application and translate it to what...

    Many orphaned Emira available

    This is the story from my understanding at least. Elway bought it from Ferrari Denver. I think Ferrari had an issue with Lotus being there or Ferrari Denver needed to get rid of the Lotus to be able to up their dealer level. Elway then put it with their Bentley dealer. Lotus then had a...

    North American Emira Problem Thread

    I’m pretty picky on how stereos sound and the bass in the Emira sounds horrendous. I haven’t driven in it for awhile because it’s my wife’s car but I really need to install new speakers. It just doesn’t sound right for some reason.

    Future Classic: Lotus Emira V6

    We have a silver s4, my wife bought it from her dad off lease. I just don’t see the appeal of silver and grey. It does literally nothing for me. Not sure why, but it’s just boring. We got yellow for the Emira and I need to wrap the corvette. I impulse purchased a black one which was moronic in...

    Just saw Theory 1 in London...

    The people who are doing this aren’t doing the building of anyone’s cars. They can only build how many they can push through the assembly line. It’s silly to say they can’t work on their next car while building the current car. That’s a great way to not have a future as business, if you can’t...

    Then they can move to the 3 seater emission failure 1 version.

    Insurance Options for US Market

    We have Hagerty and put down $5k miles. I’d like to use them for the Corvette but the not daily driver part screws me. I drive it to work all the time since it’s the best on gas mileage haha. Our annual premium is only $2k which is shocking given where we live. I thought that was pretty reasonable.

    Modified Emira rendering

    I doubt anyone has built them yet but when I’ve looked for the corvette, there are a couple places that make and ABS covers for underneath the splitter so you don’t jack it up when you bottom it out. It’ll be nice when I have money to buy a giant 3d printer for my wife’s business so I can make...

    Just saw Theory 1 in London...

    I know they’ll mess this up and not make anything close to this because no car manufacturers actually make their concept cars. But if they made the inside normal and not build the frame in carbon fiber, to get it at a normal price, I’d put a deposit down today. A three seater is awesome and unique.

    Many orphaned Emira available

    Last time I drove by there they had quite a few left but it’s been a bit. We still got the one we had on order for my wife she’s a bit of a Lotus slut since she had an Exige with a boyfriend before we met. But it’s a bit of a rough price point I think the old price made more sense, I understand...

    Modified Emira rendering

    Let me put it this way I’m still rebuilding the car. Life has got in the way the last 15 years. But I can still open the doors which aren’t light and the piston still holds them up without any problems. This is probably 20 years after I purchased them. So unless they have dramatically changed...

    Modified Emira rendering

    It would be interesting to see how easy it is to do. A lot of front fenders aren’t conducive to the angles you need to do this. My 3000gt was one of the first cars when VLS (Vertical Doors now) started manufacturing these. To do it with the 3000gt you have to open the door like 8 inches out...

    What is coming 16.09.24??

    I’ll buy one, just make the price right on it. But I’m also not going to have a mental breakdown if it’s not what Lotus, is or used to be as a car company. If it’s a cool looking car, unique and fun to drive that’s good enough. I don’t need Lotus embedded heritage in every model. But I get it...

    What color would you Wrap?

    My wife is going to do purple while keeping the blackpack parts. I think she’s doing this so I won’t drive it around since I have no desire to drive a purple car… haha
