ok as im driving my car, the car will rev higher then drop down while driving. for example ill be on 3nd gear and ill be on 3k rpm then when i try to gas it from there it will shoot and rev all the way to like 4 or 5k then drop to the appropriate rev like 3500 rpm. The sound im hearing sounds like im in neutral revving but im not. Any input on this would be nice.

Clutch. How many ks on it? You'll notice it on the hwy best. Drop to 5th (or 4th on a 5 speed) and floor it. You'll see the rpms rise but speed remains constant as you start boosting or entering your torque range.
Upgrade your flywheel when you do the clutch! :)

This is exactly what it's starting to do. And yea I'm getting an exedy oe clutch and a fidanza flywheel, so I think that should be good enough.

Yeah mate, It's definitely the clutch. You should be able to get a clutch/flywheel set for cheaper. I'm not sure where you live... But I live in J-Land and can speak enough Japanese, so I yahoo auctions the parts for dirt cheap. Do a set if you can find it. Make sure you think about what you are going to do with the car in the future. No better time to go to a twin plate than now if you are after huge numbers...

If you are just fine where you are, def. do the flywheel. It's frigging amazing the difference it makes! I hope you have honed your heel and toe though! Coz those RPMs just DROP!

Enjoy mate!!!
