Slippery Clutch?

[Rozza]

Ok so ill give a brief overview of my day. Started off by one of my tires blowing, which was fine i just drove down with the spare to have the tired replaced, got them all done while i was at it. Drove home ok, got home went to install new speakers which ive done a million times, but they wont work, not sure why.

BUT my biggest problem is all of a sudden when i took my friend home like an hour ok i went to pass a car and the engine revd but didnt really go anywhere, now this suggest to me maybe my clutch is slipping. so any advice on what might have happened would be great because it just started doing it out of nowhere.

Also my turbo timer only ran for about 30seconds when i got home when its set to go for 3 minutes........

ARGH i see money spending on the horizon.

What do people say? "GTR, land of the rising credit card debt"?

Owning and running one properly isn't cheap, it only gets worse

You have a few problems there man.

1) Speakers - more information. Did you only change the speakers? Are they 2ways, do you know they work. Does the cone pop out when you give the wires (pulled from the head deck) 9v from a battery?

2) Rev's - Dude if your engine speeds rising and you ain't gaining knots, then your clutch is slipping. (assuming all 4 wheels aren't smoking) Is it an OEM? How much power you making?

3) Turbo timer - F_cks knows, what one? Set to auto? broken?

I'm putting $100 on your tyres blew cause you were doing burnouts with the ATTESSA relay pulled out, which you did incorrectly and short circuited the turbo timer. This fried your clutch and the smoke damaged your brain, causing you to install pancakes in the doors, mistaking them for speakers.

ha...mmmm....pankcakes

are you mechanically or electrically minded? sit at 4k in third or fourth gear then give it a boot then you will know if it is slipping or not.

tried playing with the ttimer yet? if its still working then i guess you havent killed it...yet.

apply for another credit card...that'll solve all your problems =P

tires blew because they were cracked from sitting round in a a ware house for months. have never done a single burnout since i got that car heh.

It can be transmission oil leak or broken.

My hypothesis was funnier, you should've flowed

When i got mine under the 15y rule, the tires didn't need changing. The 90% used, old, hard, jap import tires where me favorites! Such a hard cracked up sidewall
