Brass synchros? The synchros are in the transmission not the clutch.

My OEM clutch had 45K and began slipping at high RPM shifts. I could have gone more miles, but decided it was time to upgrade. I went with a Fidanza flywheel and a Spec stage 3 clutch. It's a little grabby, but much better than stock.

Mine is a semi daily driver with a few VTECs a week - no track time.

mine did this too (and still does from time to time). from what i understand (reading on the forums) its not so much the clutch slipping as it is your driving style.. i believe that if your clutch was slipping the RPM's would climb but your car would not be accelerating.

I'm glad to hear that it's not just me with this problem. I would like to know what is going here...because when I step on it, I want it to go. Ha ha.
