Clutch problems? Time for a new one? Ok heres my situation my clutch was fine before I had it dynoed the other day its didnt slip or anything but when I took it to the dyno the other day (Prostreet Motorsports in Hayward Ca) never go there again I think they have something to do with it because when they guy was backing it up on the dyno he was slipping the clutch really really bad and it toook him like 6 tries to put it up there with him slipping the clutch and im just watching like WTF?!. So after I have it dynoed hes like "your clutch needs adjusted" im like you need to learn how to ****** use one.
after my dyno run the trans felt real clunky and today was the first time it slipped I had my girl with me and started getting on it and when shifted into
4th gear and it was slipping pretty bad and the nice aroma of burning clutch filled the car.
So is it time for a new one? My car has 91k on it now.

Yes, sounds like your clutch is toast. I would recommend a Diamond Stage 2 or Stage 3, depending on what your plans are with the car. The Stage 2 is good for mild mods, bolt-ons, etc. It includes a new stock 23lb flywheel, organic disc, and HD pressure plate. The Stage 3 is rated at 700hp, and includes a new billet steel 25lb flywheel, cera-metallic disc, and HD pressure plate. $550 shipped for the Stage 2 and $670 shipped for the Stage 3. Let em know if I can help.
