Limp mode on track - any thoughts?
Team Lotus replied to Paul_D's topic in Engine & Ancillaries/Gearbox
thanks for letting me know. If issue is brake light sensor, it would show a CEL + TC light? -

Black wheel bolts for V6 Exige
Team Lotus replied to fnomis's topic in Ride/Handling/Suspension/Brakes/Wheels/Tyres
Hello guys, I swap wheels quite often so I installed wheel studs just last week. I bought it from elise shops. I use loctite 242 to secured those studs torque to 35 Nm -
Exige V6 front cooling duct
Team Lotus replied to Team Lotus's topic in Ride/Handling/Suspension/Brakes/Wheels/Tyres
@Bravo73 yup, that will come next after few track days. thanks! -
Hello Guys, I notice brake starts to fade after 4-5 hot laps. Car has DBA rotors with endless pads. Don't want to drill holes and route from the front so i design and 3d printed a duct that fits under lower A arms. Air outlet can't get any closer to the rotor otherwise it would hit when turn at full lock. Will do more testing and possibly make one in carbon fiber. Any opinions would be appreciated 🙂 thx

Hello Everyone, just sharing few pictures of my car with Alias 23 front splitter and side skirts + new wrapped with 3m 1080 sky blue. front splitter from alias 23 fits perfectly to original mounting holes; side skirts does require drilling few holes to install but it was quite simple. Overall just made the car look so much nicer. Also, I have driven on track with these side skirts and see much less rubber debris on rear fenders, nice added benefit for ppl who track their car regularly👍

Garmin VIRB and OBD Dongle
Team Lotus replied to toshers's topic in Interior/Exterior/Lights/Glass/Alarms/ICE/HVAC/Other
Hello Guys, I have MX2E installed but take video using virb xe and link with obdII bluetooth reader. I'm not sure whats the cause of this but my car had rough idle and later on unable to start. lotus tech told me car's ecu and MX2E was broken and had to be replaced. when MX2E was on the car they are unable to logon to the replacement ECU. I've used OBDII reader on many of my car and nothing like this happen but is it possible that when both units, MX2E and OBDII reader is requesting data from ECU at the same time through canbus that ended up causing MX2E and ECU to malfunction? -
@cweeden its trigger by fuel injection duty cycle signal. Good thing on Aquamist kit is that it doesn't just turns on and off, spray is controlled by a fast acting valve that ramp up spray from trigger point to max. kit does not come with water tank, so just I just bought one from "SNOW", tank is only 2.84L but it doesn't use much water on a 1.5 hrs mountain road drive. it still had 3/4 of water when i got home. Reckon it'll gobble up much faster on track. I was afraid to put too much water so i first tried 80ml/m nozzle but ended up using 150ml/m, didn't try more flow cuz that's the biggest one i've ordered.

Hello Guys, after getting some parts fixed I finally got the water injection kit installed last week. car is running on a Aquamist HSF3 kit with 0.4C 150ml/m nozzle. car is not tune with water injection, rather its just there to add a bit of safety against detonation during hot days in Taiwan. So I was expecting some lost of power when it kicks in but surprisingly I don't feel any power lost when its running (butt dyno lol). feel free to ask me aquamist settings if you guys decide to get one. cheers LINE_MOVIE_1595498702408.mp4

Hello everyone, Car is in lotus dealership to check on engine problem, they could not connect to ecu unless they remove aim dash. Somehow it's interfering with obdII. Are there anyone experiencing same problem? My car has tvs1900, runs well when first installed but now having some engine problem, it seems two precat o2 sensors are not giving signals.

Hello @Kristof Thys, inject pre blower and water only won't change air/fuel ratio. to get the most out of water/methanol injection you need to get the car tuned; i'm adding it not to increase power but just to prevent engine knock during summer track days. all info came from searching on google and asking around so if something doesn't sound right, please let me know. thanks! red circle shows where the nozzle will be installed.
