Has anyone else noticed clutch slip on their SR's but only after doing some highway driving?
If i go out and drive my 240 around town keeping the speeds low and get on it, my clutch holds. But if i hit the interstate for a little while and after i get off ill notice my clutch will slip, and pretty bad at that. My friend's car also does the same thing. Both cars have s13 blacktops w/ bolt-ons @ 9psi.
Is it a coincidence possibly? Would it have anything to do w/ the fact that both of us bypassed our stock catchcans and not running any catchcan at all?

Catch cans have nothing to do with your clutch.

Try adjusting your pedal to see if that makes a difference, if that doesn't help then your clutch is probably toast.

bleeding the clutch has nothing to do with it slipping.
he's having a problem keeping the clutch engaged not disengaging the clutch

What clutches are installed in the cars?

If the both came with the swap it wouldnt suprise me that they would be slipping, seeing most of the engines get romped on drifting from the previous owners in japan.
