HI guys......so here is the problem, I have a 97 GT convertible the clutch was going when I bought it so I bought a Centerforce Stage 1 clutch for it. I had it put in about 2-3 months ago. At first I thought ok, it needs time to break in. Well...... I still Can't feel the damn thing. Feels like it goes straight to the floor and back up....thats it. I cant even feel the release point in it ( even tried that with no shoes...nothing) SOOOO.....Is this me because i am so used to driving a cable clutch and just need to get used to it or with it being a Stage 1 should I be able to feel it and something is wrong with the clutch??? Please help!!

Centerforce said break in period was 500 miles but i did baby it for about 1500. The clutch pedal is way to easy, to me anyway. I guess I just thought I should be able to feel the clutch seeing that I did put a stage 1 in it. This is my first car with power anything...... maybe its just me.........I grew up driving old school VW"s and Mustangs where you can FEEL the clutch. I'm just not happy with the way it feels, I even had one of my girlfriends drive it and she said it didnt feel right to her either. The clutch was installed at a shop (my moms boyfriend did it....he is a license mechanic and did everything). Could have done it myself but I owe to much $$ to mess up something.
It doesnt feel sloppy or slushy, just feels like nothings there. No resistance what so ever....... This post has been edited by GTchic98: Apr 28, 2005 - 8:37 AM |
