clutch slipping like a mother ****er

[300zTT]

its very odd... some days the clutch would be fine ( not perfect still slip alittle) and some days it will slip like crazy.
i have started to notice that it started to slip when it got cold out. but it slips when the clutch is cold and still slipps when i have drive it for over an hour wen it should have gotten warmer.
any way i have the rps street which should handle 420 lbs ft. and a fidanza flywheel. i broke it in for 1000miles i have had both on for about 7 months and about 15K on them. yes i do beat the living hell out of the car but should it only last that long.

what can be my problem, is it galzed over, booster went bad, cutch pedle adj, just buy an new clutch ( which one something strong)
i hear puck's dont last to long
i want something to last me more then 15 k like this one did. yes i did beat the **** out of it...
will i also need a new flywheel?
i just dont get it!

what u guys think i should do????

think about them like tires. the sticker the tire the less amount of miles you get out of it. not exactly how it works but just think about it that way.

i only got about 10k miles out of my clutchmasters stage 5 til it started slipping

Maybe you have a bad master cylinder, ahh who knows though!

mine slips too thats what u get for doing donuts in the parking lots and drifting all over the place, u will not need a new flywheel call fidanza at P: (440) 259-5656 x111 this is brad bojc or email at brad@fidanza.com, you will need a new friction surface for the flywheel about 90$+shipping thats where i got mine from

the clutch is gone theres no question to it we can play with it and try to adjust it buyt i highly doubt that will work.

damn i was thinking like 50 bucks for that ****!

also get another street disk, the puck clutches create too much force on the driveline components and you might be rebuilding the rear the way you drive after like 5000miles on a 6puck or 4 puck

No one has it around the area thats why i had to get it directly from fidanza if you find a place somewhere u might get it cheaper

the stock 300zx rear has been good on the 600+hp 300zx tt one of the guys on tt.net owns so im not worried about breaking anything. hes pulling 1.4 60ft's with out breaking abny thing and its also been good on the 1000+ hp single turbo 300zx another tt.net member owns. so i realy dont care how it grabs harsh or not as long as it does and i want it to last long!!!!

Mo, if you would just stop drivin like an asshole, ie burnouts every 5 mins, trying to race awd cars and burning the clutch just to keep up, comon man. If you drove your car normal and gave it a lil bit at times, you wouldnt be in this situation with a clutch that is less than 1 year old being bad.

[S4toSTI]

Come on driving your car normally is silly.

I vote the for "the clutch is done." I remember back in the day when DSMrs had to upgrade to Centerforce Dual Friction clutches cause they were the only things out there that could handle the extra power. Those clutches lasted about a 100 passes.

And if you are slipping the clutch you might end up warping the pressure plate so that needs to be replaced as well. Never a good idea just replacing the clutch disc alone if you got a full life out of it unless you don't mind doing the clutch job again soon.
