Hey evosol, no hard feelings here man. I really dont think the clutch will give out on you anytime soon. Since your car is hydro, well im not very familiar with that situation. However i think it has to do with your hydro systems pressure or the link on the tranny. Either of those could make it feel like your pedal engaging level is different, but you really might just have less pressure, i hope this helps.. If its not what i mentioned well the only other thing i can think of is something is worn out in the transmission, or your t o bearing isnt kicking right or something man

When you say you have to keep adjusting the clutch do you mean you have to keep bleading the system? Or what are you doing? This sounds to me like you loosing pressure, if you haven't bleed the system lately try that. If that don't help I am thinking that your slave cylinder may need to be replaced.

the engagement feels like it gets further up after a couple of weeks... then i have to readjust the clutch master cylinder pedal thinggy so that the engagement is back to where i like it to be... i just readjusted like 2 days ago now its perfect, i'm just gonna keep an eye on it...

Well, That has nothing to do with the actual clutch disk, Good luck anyways, if the problem persists, replace both cylinders

I am really guessing you have a leak in your hydro system. Check to see if the master cylinder is still good and also check the lines for leaks. Good luck.

Today i checked both cyliders thoroughly and i found a tiny leak in the master cylinder... which i hope is the cause... I think the little leakage from the master cylinder would explain the spongy/ moving clutch engagement...this week sometime i'm gonna go source one from the wrecking yard. thanks for the replys guys.

Pull the boot on the slave cylinder.. might be suprised and find a small leak in there.. very common.
