Valve seal on its own?
Captain replied to rafphillips's topic in Ride/Handling/Suspension/Brakes/Wheels/Tyres
I have sold the Evora, my 4 spare valves (bought from Raf) are available. If you are interested Ryan, keep me advised, I have to find them in my garage but it shouldn't be a problem. -
At the time I bought the wheels, they were listed on PBR as "antracite", if it helps.

Interested as well. I've found an "Evora TPMS service kit" on ebay, apparently it includes new seals. -
Winter is there! My daily driver Evora S IPS MY12 with PB Racing wheels

Here they are!

Not yet Justin I've had loads of work lately. I'll try to find some time soon to make some

I haven't noticed a difference in comfort, and the suspensions are set up for the standard 18/19 as well as the heavier 19/20, so I guess that wouldn't make much of a difference on the car's behavior. If you want exact weight savings on 18/19, ask Danilo Moroni from PB Racing, he answered my questions. The only other picture I have for the time is this rather crappy one, I'll make some more asap. About the performance, I didn't mean the car was actually faster, but it's more immediate at the moment you put your foot down.

Jerky braking at slow speeds
Captain replied to insertaliashere's topic in Ride/Handling/Suspension/Brakes/Wheels/Tyres
I had this exact problem sometimes with my LE, that was solved by either: a: a cleaning of the brakes by my dealer b: a couple of hard brakings on a spirited drive. But if I spent a couple of weeks driving it in town only, the problem would come back. She just wants to be driven fast -
For those who could be interested, I fitted a set of 19/20" PB Racing wheels on my S IPS '12. They look very good in matte black, especially on an Aspen white Evora. The best thing is they are lightweight compared to diamond cuts and I can really feel it (-3kg per front rim and -1.8kg per back rim). I'd lost a bit of road feel when trading my LE for this S IPS, and it's back! The car feels more lively, the acceleration a bit more immediate. I'm very satisfied.

Great! For the rattle, my tech told me it was just a loose screw...

Oh no! Sorry mate... My dealer spent two hours doing the alignment...

On full auto mode, driving it gently on long journeys I get 25+ mpg from my MY2012 S IPS. The board computer revealed itself pessimistic (!) when I checked the real range. One thing to note is that from the factory, the wheel alignment was catastrophic, and after having it redone properly, the fuel consumption dropped. And I mean dropped. Perhaps by 15 to 20%...
