    📓 Journals How Hard Could It Be?

    This journey started with the Elise. I had seen the Top Gear episode where Jeremy drove it, and I was hooked. It took several years before I was in a position to buy one, but before that happened I got the chance to sit in it. Well I couldn't get out of it without scooting my butt backwards...

    P2098 Post Catalyst Fuel Trim System Too Lean

    This came on eighty miles after my oil change. Not sure that it's related but.... ODB2 lists the code as permanent and confirmed. I don't see this listed anywhere else on the forum.

    Custom and Race Livery Phone Cases

    I had one of these made for me and the quality is great. They do magsafe for iPhone, but not for Pixel at the moment so I can't use mine. Still, great customer service and highly recommend. They even do custom designs as pictured below. https://www.ejusracing.com/speed-shop/lotus It's hard...

    Ignition Coils Susceptible to Water and Corrosion

    Two weeks ago I lost total power while driving. My ODB2 scanner showed a permanent failure of all six ignition coils. The dealer inspected it and determined that coils 3 and 5 were corroded, and had failed then shorted, taking the fuse that controls all six. He said he expects to see this from...

    Removing front bumper

    I removed all the screws the manual mentions. However the bumper feels very very firmly attached above and rear of the headlights. Way harder pull than the rear bumper required. There's a black plastic piece there that looks like the one on the back, but it won't just pull off. Left side...

    Defeat airbags

    How do I make sure the airbags don't deploy? Disconnect the battery? Disconnect the airbag ECU? I'm just starting to pull the car apart and don't want the airbags going off. Please help. The manual isn't much of one.

    Fastener types

    I'm waiting for my car to arrive any day now but I want to make sure I have the necessary tools on hand. What heads do the fasteners and bolts have? Torx? Hex head (assuming metric as they're listed as M5,6,10,etc)? It looks like there are a few self tapping screws as well which could have any...

    What color exhaust tips would you go with?

    I'm trying to figure out what to go with for exhaust tips. I had wanted dark green titanium but apparently that's too hard to hit consistently. I can swap with someone who has the black pack and get black ones, but given I'm changing the stock splitter and sills, and diffuser surround, and...

    Custom Floor mats from Hide and Seam (RHD)

    The stock floor mats don't reach up behind the pedals nor up the back of the passenger footwell. So I commissioned Brad at Hide and Seam to make a set for me. They're made to look OEM except longer, and I asked him to use yellow stitching to match the interior of my car. They look great, but...

    Key internals

    Can someone with an Emira please open their key and do a non-destructive teardown with pictures and perhaps measurements? Is it just a screw and a coin battery attached to a small transmitter?

    Modding the infotainment screen

    Has anyone managed to hack / mod the infotainment? I think it would be cool to inject a picture of our own spec into the startup instead of the silhouette.

    Silver brake hubs

    Has anyone looked at getting this painted or powder coated so it's not silver? I think it'll detract from the black wheels and yellow calipers. In the images I've seen it's great with the silver or diamond cut wheels, but doesn't look great with black.

    Is the rocker panel/sill one piece

    I'm looking for the parts that make up the door sill / rocker panel. Basically all of the black below the body colored door. Is this one piece or several? I got this parts list from B&C but it's difficult to make out. As best as I can tell from the manual (page 10-18) it's a lower rocker...

    What are the covers in the cabin to either side of the firewall window?

    I saw this in ta YouTube video of someone showing off their Emira. On either side of the firewall window there are snap on covers that look like the ones used for attaching car seats. Anyone know what these are for? Luggage restraints maybe? Sorry I don't have a picture.

    Fuel Choices

    I'm reading the manual and it says it requires E10 (95 RON) at a minimum and E5 (97 RON) is recommended. The E ratings appear to be octane equivalents of 94 and 97. And the RON ratings are 91 / 94 octane. So what's appropriate to use? In California I can't purchase above 91.
