i am making 270lb/ft tork???
ok so my XTSS ACT is slipping after 6 monthes.

Re:i am making 270lb/ft tork???
Because your name is Donald, yes... Yes you are...
How have you been driving it? Hard or just normal daily driving with no burnouts etc.? Do you notice any leaks on the driveway after you move your car? I'm wondering if there might be tranny fluid or oil or something getting on that clutch disc causing it to slip. |
Re:i am making 270lb/ft tork???
:D
nar it`s not oil soak. the clutch fluid is going down in the little reservior. and i can feel it with the pedal. it hold up good normally but if say. i am going 80 at 5th and i drop it to 3rd gear and punch it. u can tell it is slipping. basicly it slips whenever i hit high boost and yes i do know how to drive a manual :P |
Re:i am making 270lb/ft tork???
You sure your not just spinning the tires?

Re:i am making 270lb/ft tork???
I have been beating the ---- out of mine for almost 10 months (burnouts, dragstrip, power shifting, etc...) and it holds up ------- awesome.

Re:i am making 270lb/ft tork???
clutches go through heat cycles just like tires (that is the reason for burnouts.. but you know that already)
the clutch, if cold, may not engage as when it is warm. i know act recommends a few 'hard slips' in a 'high gear' i believe to heat it up before you try to race or plan to drive [abuse] the clutch. try heating it up.. see if it slips.. this may or may not help.. depending if you already do it. or not |
Re:i am making 270lb/ft tork???
haha if i heat it up it slips liek a bitch.
i am using the street performance disc., it`s basicly a stock disc??? my tranny is going out too, might as well |
Re:i am making 270lb/ft tork???
the clutch is probly worn out man. bad clutch, bad brake in, no resurfaced flywheel, alota things man, maybe try adjusting it aswell.
