I haven't checked in here in quite some time. If any of the old school members are still on here my email is james.s.johnson@hotmail.com. If you're planning a visit to Orange County, CA, I have a few new toys you might want to check out.

Yeah, I wasn't driving it so I sold it. Then I had room in the garage and I picked up the Lotus. Added significant power, shaved weight, Penske double adjustables, RAC Monolites, lots of aero and added a 4-wheel BBK. It's putting down 281rwhp and weighs 2000 pounds or less. It's unlike anything else I've ever owned.
Had a C6 and picked up a C7 Z51 7-spd stick last December. I have to say it's nicely done from the factory and I haven't done any modifications to speak of.
The ZX-10R is putting down 178rwhp. Quick shifter, weight reduction, Inconel/Titaminum exhaust, rear sets and custom tune by Attack Motorsports. It just wants to kill me.
I also have a 2016 Tacoma Sport 4X4 for rainy days and truck stuff. It has the new Lexus 6-cylinder that is in the Lotus Evora. I tore my quadricep last February (on my birthday no less) and was lucky to have an automatic equipped vehicle. It took me months before I could drive anything else.

One of the hard things to do with a Lotus is to reduce weight, as they're light from the factory. I replaced the stock seats with these. Dry carbon and local to me. A bit over 6 pounds each. Surprisingly comfortable as they flex a bit.

or you can make like Lambo and take the seats out totally and replace them with padding on the actual floor and back.
