Please Help ( New Clutch Slipping )
Well, i guess it's just as the title says ! I bought and got a new Spec stage 1 clutch two weeks ago. Had it installed with my stock flywheel that was turned (Re- surfaced ) and i babied the car for just over 1100 km ( about 900-1000 miles ) . Then i decidied it was time to test out the clutch. I took it up in 1st gear to abot 3000rpm floored it and shifted at about 6400rpm and all i got was TOTALL clutch slippage. To the piont the car started slowing dowm in second with the gas to the floor and the rpms bouncing off the redline . So i threw the clutch back to the floor and putted along slowly home ! My car is bone stock other then an ingalls TD . I dont get it at all. this clutch BRAND NEW slips more then the stock one did. My car has 25000 km on it ( maybe 20,000 miles ) . The only thing that wasnt replaced was my slave cylinder cause the shop said it was not need with a car with so few km !! Im so mad at this clutch and or car ! I spend good money ( $1400 CDN ) and its absolute garbage. Can anyone give me any good advice please ! Thanks very much for your time !
