Thread: Clutch Issue..?

Ok, lets not use the term "power shifting". Lets just say i'm shifting from 1st to 2nd gear at about 8k, pushing the clutch all the way down, letting of the gas, shifting from 1st to 2nd, letting go of the clutch pedal, giving it gas..

NO where in between am i just SLAMMING in the gears, just high revving with quick, but PROPER, Shifts

Well why didn't you say so? Power shifting is a well defined term describing a specific...

Here is the thing. Dont get me wrong.

Quick shifting, meaning just tapping the clutch during the shift while maintaining full throttle. "No Lift Shift" as they like to call it will save you time in the 1/4 for sure. In a ve car in just a 1/4 mile it will save you .2 to .3 easy.

Your clutch is probably slipping dude. A stock pp will not be enough to hold a ve for long whether its new or not. You need an upgrade. At the very least get a clutchmaster stage 1 PP or something. They are cheap and it will hold.

The other issues are your clutch cable not being adjusted properly or your cable is frayed inside and about to break. I would adjust first. See if you can put some washers or spacer behind the cable to give you more adjustment room if your about to run out.

1" to 3/4 " copper reducer and a inch washer.

gotcha, now i know!

ok, i will adjust the clutch cable, and get back to you guys.. as for the Stock PP, i don't see it being the problem.. I've had 300hp cars with stock PP and they didn't feel like this..

i find it strange that your are using ceramic disc and oem pp

it's better to upgrade the pp and use a oem disc

peace
