Right then my car seems to be slipping between 3-4,only between that RPM in any gear

But at any other revs it does not slip

Any ideas

Thank you

Ye i know that,i just tried it to see where it stared to slip

How long would you think it would last driving sensable

Also what clutch do i need to get as im running about 180 BHP

depending on how much more power you wanna run, if your happy how you are now then a paddle clutch of some sort will do, but if your wanting to run 250+ then the orc309 is way to go in my eyes, but theres a few options about

Well the plans were to go higher but thats going to be late next year now due to money issues

so im keeping it as it is

invest in a better clutch for future mods but if money issues, just get a stock cutch or a regular uprated clutch set for a little more for time being.

Clutch is slipping mate!! Mine was same 2 weeks ago, slipping as soon as boost came on, now have trd paddle. As others have said, best off spending a little bit extra if your hoping for more power in the future...as changing clutch is a painful job, unless ya goldenvtr who is a legend at doing em by all accounts :p

you'd be better of to just pursist for a bit with it slipping then get a decent clutch up for the job, specially if you cant take the box out yourself and are paying for it.

it wont be so bad if your taking it out yourself as there wont be labour to pay, but if your gonna put a standard one in again then a uprated one in a few months thats kinda pointless and expensive

o well that kills most of the cost then, really down to you then wat you do, but im a fan of just do the job once and properly, borrow some cash of the rents if needed and then pay it back if possible

not possbile lol,my dad said if i get this car im on my own with the fixing cost etc which i agreed to get it

Im thinking of taken it off the road for a while and save up,see how it goes

other option is drive it until it goes

well yea you should be able to make it last a little bit longer but obviously dont do any burnouts donuts etc lol or itll just go like jelly

i had my clutch slipping on my glanza for a while made it last a month or two so its possible

Gutted Gav. Mine's shuddering at the moment, so I don't think I've got a huge amount of mileage on her. :(

I can't really add to what the guys have said. Give me a shout if you need a hand, I'm only just down the road after all. :)
(Plus I could do with knowing how to change one as I'll be doing mine myself. On my drive. In winter. Probably in the pissing rain. Mint
