    Default New clutch question

    I just installed a stage 3 6 puck clutch in my 92 240 sx ka-t and i was expecting it to work right away but it tried it out and it still slips.. Ive just adjusted the pedal but i dont think its going to help much and was wondering about the break in period. I think it said 500 miles so should i expect it to slip until it broken and just drive it easy or should i be concerned? Its slipping when i make full boost and my car is only making around 240hp..

    Did you resurface your flywheel?

    also i adjusted the rod on the pedal almost all the way with most of the threads on the pedal side instead of the firewall side.

    when you break in a clutch you dont let it go into full boost because you are not supposed to go all out on it. There is a break in period for a reason.
