clutch problems

[r-rracing]

oky so i just replaced the transmition with a rebiult on a 96 eclipse i bought i also replaced the clutch,pressure plate,resurfaced flywheel,master and slave cylinder.
i made sure it was bleed out properly, the flywheel was cleaned to get the oils off when installed...my ? is when i get in boost the clutch slips it doesn't slip when im not in boost tho..any ideas
is it possibly they cut to much off the flywheel i didnt mik it out
i think its the flywheel i just wanted to get your ideas before i tore the trans out agion

My car would slip whenever I hit boost as well. It ended up being my spark plugs...they were full of oil so it was misfiring like crazy causing it to drive as if it were slipping. Funny thing is it would only slip under boost and only if it was boosting fast...when slow boosting, I didn't have any problems so i figured either my clutch was going or my tires weren't gripping...changed my plugs and had the oil leak fixed and it hasnt slipped since

huh.. i never heard of that before i acutely replaced the plugs,wires with ngk wires and autolight plugs. i replaced the valve cover gasket also since the guy i bought it from had in silicone.

Did you properly adjust the the master cylinder rod? If it is improperly adjusted, the clutch might not be fully engaged and causing it to slip.

Yea we double checked the adjustment rod..we thought that to then we replaced it since we were out of ideas..but yea it seems to be adjusted and bleed out properly..

Did you follow these instructions when you adjusted your clutch?

“Proper Clutch Adjustment VIDEO”

Yea thats how we did it..we actually looked at that video
Can a improper shimed flywheel do this ?

The only time you shim the flywheel is if the flywheel had been machined enough to cause "right-off-the-floor" engagement issues/clutch fork hitting the bell housing. But most people just shim the pivot ball instead of the flywheel. Otherwise it should NOT be shimmed. How many times has your flywheel been machined? Also, you need to verify that your flywheel step height of .612" with a perfectly flat friction surface. <-- most places WILL not do this correctly even if you ask them to. Take it to a TRUSTED machinist who will verify the numbers in front of you.
