so, I just recieved a G-tech performance meter and I put it in and went to go take my car out for some test runs. I went out to these really long straight back roads that nobody is ever on and gave it 4 or 5 hard runs. but by the third run my brand new-ish spec stage 2 clutch (only 3,000 miles on it!) started slipping in second. and the next run it slipped into 2nd and 3rd. and while I was driving it home it slipped a LOT! and by I mean A LOT!!! like, just cruising in any gear at 25% throttle, just pressing the gas down slightly to, say, 50% throttle and it would slip for a while before catching. could my new clutch really be gone already? I mean, I broke it in 500 miles before pushing it, but I have driven it kinda hard since then. I bought the stage two so I could have something that would hold up to the power I plan on after I turbo, but if it can't even hold up to a near-stock 5sfe's power... anyway, anybody know what spec's warranty is like? I can't seem to find the piece of paper they sent me with the clutch. I'm most scared that even if the clutch is gone and they send me a new one for free that I'm still going to have to pay another $760 labor to get it installed... again!

QUOTE(95CelicaRacer @ Feb 9, 2007 - 2:47 PM) [snapback]525463[/snapback] I know this is a little off topic, but I was wondering if the 5sfe crankshaft bolt holes where the fylwheel is bolted on to is straight through becuase if so, oil could be leaking through the bolt holes, and it could look like a rear main leak. no, they are not. the only thing in that area is the rear main seal. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
