Ekushiji



"Ekushiji" is a funny way to say Exige in Japanese. Saw a Japanese guy say it on a YouTube and thought it was hilarious. Anyways... thought I'd throw a quick update with the mods on this 2006 Lotus Exige. Most have been suspension oriented mods, as I will focus on brakes later :)

CharlieX ECU Tune (Lower Cam Timer to 6k RPM)
Polyurethane Engine Mounts (TRACKmounts)
Shifter Re-Enforcement Plates (re-ENFORCER)
Baffled Oil Pan (gPan)
Rear Central Brace + Nitron S99 Outboard Toe Pin (RTD2Brace)
BOE Fabrication Surge Tank
Custom Fire Suppression Unit
Titanium Exhaust System
Pagid RS 4-2 Blue Brake Pads
Girodisc Stainless Steel Brake Lines
K&N Drop-in Air Filter
Boomerang Rear Tow Hook
Folding Front Tow Hook
Rear Panel Eliminator (Eliminator V3)
Carbon Fiber Rear View Mirror

The Z will be going in for a Triple Mikuni Carburetor dial-in and Dyno at Z Car Garage this weekend. Unfortunately my mechanic at Dandos Automotive has moved to TurboHoses in San Francisco, so I need a more local Z Specialist. I have heard great things about ZCG, so hopefully I'll have some success there. Check out their website and blog at http://www.zcargarage.com/ and http://www.zcarblog.com/.
