tell me about it mate, especially with christmas just round the corner and iv bought exactly 0 prezzies up to now

Ha ha good show.

Your clutch won't be slipping it'll be the tyres spinning up like a mother fu*ker. :funk:

I found the key not getting bored of my car / bike is not to use it every day. Leave it sitting for a week and it'll feel awesome again.

Good results anyway mate. spot on!;)

yeah i think it is the clutch lads, still spins up anyway, can tell when the clutch is going though and this defo seems to be going, going to replace it but not just yet, broke as a joke at the mo, probably next month and il see what the penny situation is like and probably change it then to a spec one, was going to get the diff done at same time but will have to save for that, and i need a clutch sooner rather than later so i think the diff will have to be fitted at another time

will get some logs done this weekend hopfully, if its not wet, pointless even attempting it in the wet

You dont spin in 4th, get it logged. You'll soon find out if its slipping in 4th under full load.

naa, only spins up in 2nd and 3rd (in the dry 3rd gear spin is minimal)

its not slipping in 4th i dont think, or if it is i cant tell, only seems to be 2nd? just taking it easy until i get into 3rd for now, so should be ok to do some logging,

forgot to mention , it was spinning in 4th last night, only beacause the type of road i was on though, it was a express way and the surface is really slippy and it was absolutly hammering it down, i was on a grippy bit of road (where they put that yellow layer on top of the road for grip coming up to roundabouts n stuff) and i was pulling out of a roundabout and the first bit of road had the yellow stuff down, nice and grippy, floored it in 3rd, changed into 4th, got off the grippy stuff onto the road just when i was at full chat, and it span up and nearly sent me accross the other sid eof the road, span up and my front end just pulled me sideways towards the kurb, very very brown moment

wouldnt happen on any other type of surface or wether though i dont think
