Evora GT Clutch, Flywheel & Delay Valve Replacement

 The Evora GT is an amazing sportscar that has true supercar potential.  We've successfully tuned one to 500hp and enhanced it's brakes and handling.  The feel and sound of this car is still quite thrilling and dramatically better than most modern sportscars on offer.  The Evora has one issue that should be considered before purchasing one - it's clutch.  If you are considering one of these cars, make sure to have the clutch operation inspected by someone who knows these cars.

We received an Evora GT from a new owner who bought the car from the East Coast.  Upon delivery, he noticed the clutch did not operate the way he expected.  He immediately sent it to us and we confirmed that the clutch needed replacement.

A clutch replacement is an engine out job which requires a rear clam removal.  We got to work...  

The clutch and flywheel both showed hot spots that caused the performance issues.  

We replaced the parts with factory parts but one key part we replaced was the Clutch Delay Valve with our Evora Clutch Line (Delete Pipe).  We Blogged about this previously: HERE.  

We believe the factory delay valve may have caused the previous owner to slip the clutch in response to the delay they were feeling when driving.  Or they were simply dumping the clutch and doing drag strip launches.  

This is much easier on a GT with the engine out but can still be done on cars with an engine still installed.

We installed our ESWkit as well to smooth out the shifting of the car.
