Alright guys , i need your help... Car is acting very strange

[RockSolidGST]

Alright i will try to be as specific as possible So i dont have to repost anything


Mods list are - IC pipes , mbc ( 15psi ) , 3"turboback , intake , bov


Now i think this is my clutch but im not sure , about a 2 weeks ago i went to do a highway pull and my car suddlenly bucked and then continued pulling ( it was very very cold , So i figured it was possibly fuel cut )


Anyways to make this shorter about a week ago , i went to get on it in 3rd , the clutch slipped up into 4,500rpm , Before the car even started to really accel... So i figured , "eh" time for a new clutch..... This is my first standard so i dont really know what a going clutch "feels" like.

Now recently if i get on it , in ANY gear ( even 5th.. at 3,200 ) The car shudders , almost feels like wheelhop ina sense , But not as bad. I can't tell if this is the clutch , or something more serious ( i have already orderded a new clutch / flywheel im just waiting for them to come in )


Any feedback would help


I just did all required mat. as well ... All belts + timing , Water pump , plugs , wires , fluid flush....This "problem" arrised before this tune up

First of all, please don't bump your threads as this is a great way to get them closed.

From what you've desribed, it does sound like a clutch issue. Make sure you use a new OEM throwout bearing during the install and bleed everything properly.

Let us know what you find,

Some of the clutch kits out , Come with new Throw out bearings , Such as ACT , are these the OEM , and if not do you suggest i go with an oem?


Im trying to decied between a spec stage 2 + act flywheel or a act 2100/flywheel any input?

I will be ordering my clutch/flywheel/lsd , when i get out of work today

any suggestions would be appreciated since my knowlage on the "quality" of clutchs is not to extensive...

Thanks guys

Go with an act 2100 since you are fwd, either an act or fidanza flywheel (both are just as good, fidanza is lighter) and i would go with the oem tob unless you get one with the kit. Have fun dropping the trans...
