the car has been driving really well and then my dad borrowed it for a day and came back saying he reckons the clutch is slipping - I told him to poke it but when I drove it it did seem to have an issue.!
Basically when in second or third if you put your foot down the revs climb to 4k and then sharply climb with no additional acceleration, just lots of engine noise. Is this clutch slip? Or is it something else? Can it be tensioned/pressure increased to reduce slip? Either way I have not noticed it before! If it is the clutch I presume it needs replacing and therefore my next question is - is it an engine out job? Or can you just jack it up and remove it from underneath? And is it an averagely mechanically minded individual? The car is a 94 GT St202! Any pics would be marvellous! Sorry for all the questions -------------------- ![]() |

Ok cool, thanks, drove it today and I definitely can feel slipping and the smell of burning Kevlar!
So ive decided to get an Exedy Stage 1 clutch and am still toying with the idea of doing it myself with the help of my dad who knows a bit about engine etc! But does anyone have a list of tools required and operational procedures? For example do you have to drain and replace the transmission fluid? What about Oil? Does that have to be drained? Has anyone got a guide to removing the axle? Any links to threads or pics would be great! Thanks -------------------- ![]() |
