went and looked at a s13 ca18det for daily lapper, and noticed during the car revving through gears the car revs out for about 2 grand, not really going anywere, then when getting into higher revs, it grabs and pulls away. is this tell tale signs of a buggered clutch?

any help would be awesome

cheers guys

got it in one mate, dont go near it. buyin a car with a screwed clutch is the worst thing you could do, because you dont know why it is slippin in the first place. it could be oil from the rear main, oil from the crack in the bell housing or just straight up good old fashioned abuse. Wont know until you pull it out. Changin a clutch in those cars is a piece of piss though.

mine went more the other way, grabbed ok in the lower gears but when in the taller gears and trying to overtake people, it would just slip. was a extreme clutch, chewed out the flywheel and pressure plate but clutch plate ok!

I think I have the same problem as Pal - but to me it tends to happen when i hit higher boost/rpm in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Is this still the Clutch-o giving way? Or something along the lines of the flywheel???

PLEASE HELP!!!??!!!

I have only recently had a power upgrade, and when I'm driving normally its fine, but since i have a laggyish turbo, when it hits full boost the rpm starts to skyrocket to redline but no more power gets put to the ground... Its very annoying.
