whats up with my clutch? its out now..

Ok, I put a new standard clutch kit in my car (89 gxl) about 3,000 miles ago and it was slipping, it wouldent get any worse, just slip and high rpms, so I, I think it my be that my flywheel wasnt researfaced to spec.......so I ordered a new clutch, I hated the feel of the rp one, i got a stock one ready to go in. But here is the problem, I just got the clutch out..and it looks like there are some kind of scrapes on the disc, like I dont know, it doesnt look normal, I dont know what it is, what do i do so it doesnt do that again?
Thanks

-Adam

Clutch surfaces always look a little "scraped" up IMO



You really need some pics to get some help.

Yeah, they usually look scraped up, it'd be hard to tell without seeing it. Maybe if you run your finger accross it and see if it catches your finger nail or anything then it might be excessive. It's always good to have a new heavy duty PP & get the flywheel resurfaced.

alright ill try and get some pics and than re-post, they arent normal scrapes, they are pretty big ones. like there are probably 15-20 per side, and they are about 1- 1 1/2 inches long.... Also they inside part of the disc is all blue, which im assuming is from the slippage. but yeah ill try and get pics
