Clutch issues
Ok my 1 yr old OEM clutch is starting to give me hell and i'm wondering how much longer it will last. First off, it slips sometimes from a dead stop. It will shutter a couple times while i'm letting the clutch out and then it'll be fine. Recently, when i leave the car in gear at a stop light and push in the clutch i've noticed that my idle was acting funny, but when i put it into neutral it quits. So i started messing with it and noticed that if its outta gear it's fine but if it's in gear with the clutch pressed it drops about 100 rpm and idles consistently but sounds different. How much longer before you think i will have to replace it? Also, i heard ACT clutches are great. Anyone know where i can get the best deal on one? Thankx!

I've been watching ebay and they have complete kits around $150 with 6 pluck and stage two about the same$. Be sure to get a new release bearing and check the hydraulic system, it could have air in it. My 91 has 130k miles on the original clutch but I had a leaky clutch master cylinder with similar problems like that. Try bleeding the slave unit.
