yea that's your clutch. when the clutch is bad and it cools down it works better.

time for a new one :D

Did you buy this car brand new? If you have then I'm surprised that your clutch still has some meat off it with Vancouver's driving condition :lol

its your clutch slipping.

time for a better aftermarket one!

do your research on which one to get.

As everyone has said already, its most likely your clutch.

Take it to a shop to get a new one installed! If you don't know which one, then RS has many sponsors that can help you. You can take a look at the sponsors page.

I recommend mfrt. They are on Marine and Laurel in Vancouver. Ming and Percy (mechanics there) are really easy guys to talk to.

whats the price difference if i got a after market clutch.... and would they have the clutch of hand?.. or would there take some time for it to be shipped in....? only reason why i havent gotten it fixed yet is that i dont have enough money saved to fix this week... gotta wait tell next week.... and would like any info i can get befor i have to see anyone... and thanks for everyone that posted...

I love these threads.

OP gets his answer and acknowledges it.
Then 5-10 others jump in and say the same answer thats already been repeated. Just to sound smart.

PS: IT'S YOUR CLUTCH.

Call Lordco.
Get the price for an OEM clutch.
Call shops for the aftermarket clutch price.
Find a shop to do it. Decide on your own.

The clutch job could cost anywhere from $200 to $600. Or even more.

Hey SpuGen I'm really happy for you, I'm gonna let you finish but BD2002 had the best solution of this thread.

jking

PS - ITS THE CLUTCH

lordco can quote you for performance clutches as well, we can also order it in for you.

if it isn't a stocking item at the performance warehouse, you'll have to wait 2-6 weeks for a back order.

but most popular applications should be a stocked item.

haha i drove a 90 corolla with nothing ever changed on it and no problems,

...untill my friends put dents in it

yeesh... couple places i called and went to were rude.... but yeah i found a pretty good shop... a friend requested... with best price he even helped me out by charging less for the labour... a good guy... at ARTS AUTO on Clark and Georgia... oh yeah... and its goin to cost over a 1000 bucks... apparently... my clutch is really expensive... called around its about 650ish just for the cheapest clutch i could find...

just curious. how much mileage do u have?

im at around 79k ish...

Clutch, your clutch is not grabbing

ebay is your friend

You might want to get a lighter flywheel while your at it.

rpms shooting up and no pull = no grab = no clutch ..gl with that..get a clutch u want now unless you just want oem

Umm...no. The car is likely for daily driving. A lighter flywheel will not solve his problem.

^ Plus he's probably just daily driving it to and from work etc etc so an OEM spec clutch would be fine. :)

Replace the flywheel and the cluch.

Sheesh.... shits taking forever to be over with... the guy i brought it too is starting to look more shady.... raising the price he originally gave me... that i agreed too... and now again hes saying that it might cost around 1200ish bucks... really wishing I found a more reliable shop that I felt more comfortable with..... guess I'll learn from this....

well all is done... drives good now... he took the price down a bit... all in all... just glad its done...

PS: thanks to everyone that posted and gave me advise and input...
