We can't speak for the Matrix application. We install them into Lotus Elise/Exiges and have installed power adders with great results.

We are hosting 2econd Satudays events at our shop, every month. Come by to the next one.

Put on beanie and turn up the heat!

It's tough to check our own ego at times. The 'Red Mist' kicks in - even on the street! The consequences on the road can be dire, so sometimes it's better to eat some humble pie and chill....

Correct, it is modification that cuts into the car with permanent mods.

No slagging, just identifying areas that we are addressing. We are building these engines for clients who want more than street performance. The 2ZZGEs were not made for track use - how many production engines are? We think the engine is vastly improved after the Montune rebuild for our needs - both street and track.

@@InoKinetic I thought if anything the oil pump was the weak spot, only if you over rev in the down shift

@@kevinbrooks1607 Correct, that is why we replace the sintered gear with a billet one. The balancing of the rotating assembly is a key aspect of this build that really makes the engine rev so much smoother - like a Honda!

Thx for making us aware of that...did not realize it! Will change it.

Brent has been a God send for us. He has made some new breakthroughs that are delivering even better tunes.

Regular driving is one sure way to keep her running nicely! I still need to visit your fine country one day...

More info coming

We have not tried the Kenda.

The performance is marginally better but not enough to upgrade from 1.0 to 2.0. We did it to address mfg costs increases with 1.0.

@@InoKinetic thanks for honest advice. I home to see more Evora performance parts, so I can burn my money 😂

We'll be ready when you are...

Thanks! We try hard to deliver. Sometime we get it wrong but do our best to correct. Thanks for your support! We love these cars and the community!!!

Typically $150-250/damper

Dare I say 'willing victims'? 😉

I remember my tires turning grey from that product...guess we are dating ourselves!

I am a huge fan of PERL from CarPro. SiO based and keeps the plastic bits looking great inside and out.

Cool! Don't hesitate to call us with any questions. Check our our 'Sessions with Shinoo" to lock in time that works for your schedule

@@InoKinetic Stacy was nice enough to send me my full car cover while the shower cap is still being produced since my new (to me) Lotus doesn't get a spot in the one car garage. It's small, but it won't fit in there along with my wife's Corvette. 🙂

Now for cars that we service. We have not yet packaged it for sale to ship to clients.

Is that in the plans?@@InoKinetic

@@chronomancer6665 Yes, sometime in 2024. Call us if you want details.

We made them. They are sold out but may make more soon....check our website: www.inokinetic.com

You own some great examples that show the companies heritage and passion for drivers. They are being forced into EVs but that should not stop them from delivering EVs designed for drivers. I've owned a dozen Lotus and I want to see them evolve and survive - not die!

you may be right. time will tell

Agreed about continuing some kind of offering that satisfies the original customer base - those of us who want modern solutions for lightweight, simple, connected sports cars. Continuing production for and federalizing the S3 Elise seems like a good way to do that for the near future. No one would mind the new EVs if they simply added them to the lineup instead of replacing the kinds of cars that made the company great

Macan sales are aspirationally driven purchases that also tick the practicality box. So there is one successful example of a cool CUV. A smaller Lotus CUV is coming - possibly built in South Carolina alongside the Volvos and Polestar CUVs....at least that seems like a smart place to keep the costs down and build in the region that has fallen for CUVs...

@@MrBubs-yu4wm The cost to Federalize a car is so astronomical that low volume cars (like the Elise) are financially impossible. You could only do this as a loss leader. Hence the importance of having volume cars that deliver cash flow...and allow for loss leaders.

@@InoKinetic makes sense. I wonder why a car like the Elise couldn’t sell in volumes like the Miata? You’d think there would be enough demand that it could sell at volume and not have to be a loss leader. Were US sales of the S2 Elise limited more by demand or production capacity? And how was the Elise ever in the US if it was uneconomical?

@@MrBubs-yu4wm Elise price is twice has high as Miata so sales volume will be lower. Lotus sold 5k cars in the first two yrs of sales in the US and then only sold 2k more cars in the next 5yrs because demand dropped off. Lotus had plenty of capacity. Once the pent-up demand was met, the sales dropped to the natural take rate for a car - which is low for such a focused car.

The old Lotus was not financially viable. This one may be. Geely have done wonders with Volvo/Polestar so blaming them for an impending Lotus failure is a false prediction.

@@InoKinetic Well sure they'll survive. But at what cost? Switching from lightweight performance cars to heavy EV SUVs means they are only keeping the Lotus name. “Simplify, then add lightness.”

@@OobliHD Lightweight performance cars have not allowed them to financially exist. This is a dead end and has nearly killed them over and over again. Look at how many times they have been sold. Entering a larger market will deliver revenue. Hopefully it will be enough to allow them to make lighter versions of EVs - the reviews of the Eletre suggest they are performance oriented. I'm holding out hope that their LEVA will deliver the lighter weight and driving dynamics that we are want - but they need cash flow to see this happen.

@@InoKineticmismanagement, quality control and cross platform usage of underwhelming poor parts has been their past downfalls. Ie Renault transmissions in the 3.5 twin turbo, rover engine in the series one, and wiring issues galore in the 70s. The cash flow was successful using Toyota powertrains. Dependable so they can focus on handling and weight management. Your lotus customers want a unique focused sports car. The brand will fail mass producing junk no one wants. I buy my lotus cars for the track not everyday usage. Point two- the grid will never be available for electricity. I’m an industrial electrical engineer. I’m part of the development of grid design. We aren’t improving anything. We can barely maintain the existing grid on the East coast and mid west in my company. Electric hikes are to purchase used capacitors and keep linemen crews available. We don’t have new workers to replace exiting people that are retiring. That is the reality the media isn’t telling you. Pa division of met Ed just invested 50 million in upgrading their diesel trucks. Diesel. Ev is not the future, regardless of what the government tells you. They don’t set the policies- our company does.

I agree that he was willing to do what it took to race. Sadly racing is so expensive that few companies have trul been able to do it cost effectively. I think Mazda may be the only large brand that have pulled it off in a cost effective manner by supporting grassroots. Ferrari run F1 by the strength of their market position and profits.

would be too heavy compared to the 4 cyl that it has. But it would be pretty fun regardless.

@@dancinglizard3080 The 2GR's weight penalty, while a lot, isn't really that much. That said, when you have an Elise, you mostly want to keep that weight benefit as much as possible. It's why K-Swaps are much more common.

@@slushyslushslushbruh Absolutely agree. Personally i'd keep it light but a 2gr would still do great on it 👍

I've got exactly this...its called an Exige 😉

What is the suspension brand and model in the 111RS? Is it the Racetech 36mm single adjustable coilovers with street rate springs?

Thx. I like the 2ZZGE - they have been a good match for these cars. If you are tracking your car, you have a couple oil considerations but they can be run safely/reliably. Our Mountune built 2ZZGE are simply awesome!

@InoKinetic thx for reply sir! I use 0w40 mobil1 fs oil is good? The car is "family car" but when im alone go over 6k rpm every time. Sir What's the cause for wiped intake camshaft on 2zzge? Also Can tight valve clearance hurt the cam lobes?

@@DimoS... Make sure that the oil is warm before jumping into the second cam. Keep your clearance close to factory specs.

@InoKinetic thank you very much sir!

@InoKinetic 0.12-0.13 is ok sir right? Can a clearance like 0.06 hurt the cal lobes?

my Elise is that green - racing green.

This will be a fantastic development and resource for the Lotus community. Nitron's roots are with this brand and we will all benefit.

HOT: AO48s = 26/28 psi, R888 = 31/33 psi

How about A052s?
