What did you do to your Emira today?

That hurts to see. What happened? I see blue tape numbers on the door, maybe a track day accident?
I hit the guardrail at 85mph :(
Oh dude I'm SO sorry!! Please tell me you had track insurance? That's going to be royally expensive to repair.
yes I always get track insurance. Hoping is totaled so I can get a check and buy another Emira :)
 
I almost feel like we should get you this hat

Got myself a nice selection of used (nearly new) parts for my I4 Emira. Planning to install at the WE. Aerie Ti exhaust and cat. Dump valve, carbon paddles and some carbon trim bits. Everything came in at less than the price of a new Cat ;) :cool:
Really interested in seeing how you get on with your selection

Yeah, I was thinking this might be a total....airbags, windshield, front body, right fender, front hood, right front headlight, possibly right front suspension, radiator and whatever is under the hood on the right side, right front wheel and tire... and if there's frame/chassis damage on a car like this where it's all bonded together, yeah.... this has to be a total.

I guess the good news is dealers now have some orphaned Emira's available so you shouldn't have to wait forever to get a new one.

Other than ego and feelings, hopefully you didn't have any injuries?

Damn. That's already a lot of parts already. The oil cooler broke too, got oil in the track. Plus you have to add labor. I'm thinking there must be chassis damage from either the front right control arms, or as indicated by a cracked windshield which cracked not because it was hit directly by anything - but there's a spot you can see something underneath the windshield caused it to crack.

I feel fine about it not that it's settled. I was having so much fun, was pushing myself and my limits, the car was handling great, and thankfully I didn't hit anyone and didn't get hit.

Sorry to see it. Was it understeer?

Turning right onto the straight away the back went out, I tried to counter steer to stop the spin, but didn't have enough distance and understeered into the guardrail on the front right side.

Sorry about this and I’m glad you’re ok
 
Did a dyno today with my JUBU440 upgrade… impressive results! Have decat, air filter and valve controller.. here are the results!

Power is absolutely there with the JUBU upgrade, just a few teething problems which hopefully will be fixed remotely with the JUBU team.
After comparing your dynos to mine, the big difference which is what you feel, is torque. At 2,500 rpm you have about 440nm and I have 284. We both have the same power to the rear wheels. Although they're showing much higher engine power, the power to the rear wheels is almost exactly the same as mine, with a max of about 389hp for you and 386 for me. If they're crank hp number is accurate, you're showing a drivetrain loss of almost 16%, while I'm showing 7.6%. I have no idea why there would be that much difference. The difference in torque is what's worth it though, which is what the Emira needs more than anything.

Where you'll be able to measure the real-world difference is in 0-60 times.
