  • clutch problems???

    i have no power to the wheels when i put the car into gear i pretty much crawl away and i have to put it in fifth gear to 50km down the road. and when its in gear i if i hit the gas it revs and then comes down and slowly takes off i was wondering if anyone know's what's going on and why i am thinking clutch but i hoping not i check all the easy **** like fluid levels and stuff and everything is good im hopping its not clutch cuz i dont wanna have to pay the bill if you can think of anything it could be that i haven't done let me know thanks for the help.

                      Spec clutches are cheap as dirt cause they can't hold torque as well as the other "same HP" rated $1500 and up clutches 600hp and 200 torque?

                              look up epic autosports in vancouver and give them a call. i got my clutch done there after having the same symptoms ur describing. went with a excedy oem replacement on my stock 92 and am very satisfied with it, am to understand it will hold 400 rwhp an if you aint gonna go pass that soon its a cheap "patch" till you wanna lay serious hp.
