Gearbox...?

[wurboman]

:ffs: Anyone in the know about the prices on changing a clutch on a 1995turbo.. i think mine is on its way out.. i think this because the other day i was on the local link road in 5th and tried to accelerate fast and the car didnt move but the engine made loads of noice Does anyone know where the best place for a clutch? and whether the engine needs to come out to do the job? :hokus-pokus:

Or could this be a gearbox problem?

Please help

Sounds like the clutch to me....especially in the top gears, the revs shoot up when ya floor it. It's NOT too bigger job, I got a HEAVY DUTY clutch installed for about $900 nzd's which was great for drag racing....crap for everyday driving though :( I wouldn't do it again....go stock. took my guys about 4-5 hours labour from memory. Gearbox should be fine.

I went for a ClutchMasters Stage 3 and Findanza flywheel .. think it's rated to over 400 ft/lb.

Got it frm the US .. think the clutch was about $400 and the FW $350 (US Dollars).

Then about $200 for shipping ..

Then it was about 6 hours labour to fit it .. got it done with a load of other work.

It's lighter than stock on feel and hasn't slipped once ..
