ok well we first noticed this when i took my swapped celica to the track (not even going to talk about the times because the car was broken all night)

it used to be a lot worse, i would creep forward slowly at 3 grand..

i have adjusted the clutch all the way, which solved my sloppy shifter feeling but not my clutch issue, it seems to have gotten better but still not perfect which annoys me.

the only adjustment i have left is pedal height and thats getting ridiculously high to the point where its starting to look goofy in my pedal arrangement.

im also 99% sure it has been completely bled.

the next logical assumption is that something is wrong with my clutch, correct? i have a Centerforce stage 3 dual friction clutch, and when i bought the motor and trans from a guy who wrecked his car he said the clutch was pretty new less than a thousand miles.

so im assuming because of the fact that many other problems i have had with this car have been due to the previous owner and the shops he had work on the car that this is just another point in my project where im going to have to spend more money.

does anyone have any more ideas? as of right now the car only begins to lurch forward at like 6 grand, so i can live with it because ill never be nuetral dropping at 6 grand but its still an annoying problem and i also want to make sure nothing is getting hurt because of it.

thanks!
