Default HELP!! clutch slipping

ok guys I got a d15b/lx tranny in a 95 hatch. Orginally I put a exedy stock clutch in and didnt necessarily follow the break in procedures. I took it out and beat on it a lil within the first 15 miles ( i did smell the clutch a lil bit) but after that took it easy for 500 miles. It worked fine and once I put a 50 shot on it, it still did good. Every once and a while it seemed like it would be slipping and Id get off it and everything would be fine. Eventuallly the tranny got stuck in 5th so I got another used one.

Once I put the new tranny in I decided to run a 75 shot. It slipped first time so I returned to a 50 shot and still got slipping. So I didnt spray and it still slipped. So I said **** it and bought a new f1 clutch (u can say cheap clutch but Im not buying it unless just this one clutch is bad), fidenza flywheel, and f1 pressure plate. When I took the old exedy clutch out it looked fine (maybe a lil heat spots) on the flywheel side but on the pressure plate side it look and felt like a tire. It was rubbery feeling but still kinda hard like those hard rubber bushings. I put 750 super easy miles on the new six puck and then started spraying. It worked fine for the first few times but then once i put it on the interstate (had 3 people) it started slippin again. Now even all motor it will slip...on a six puck clutch!! Do u think its the tranny? Iv never seen or really heard of this..help me out please. Im going to take this one out on sunday probably

i was mistaking the tire feeling side of the clutch is actually on the pressure plate side...heres some pics

First one is the flywheel side, next two are the pp side, and the last is the six puck thats slipping now...WTF!

Iv ran several f1 clutches in different cars and never had a problem. Even my turbo 350hp b16 never once slipped on me, in fact that clutch is now in a b20/vtec holding up with no problems

Icon2 Re: HELP!! clutch slipping

Got a F1 racing stage 4 clutch, fidanza flywheel, and F1 PP. I am having the same problem with my F1 Stage 4 clutch. When i am in 1st or 2nd gear and floor it i rev up and shoots straight to red line real quick. other times in 2nd i can floor it and it will pull all the way to redline. I am wondering if the clutch has to heat up enough for it to grab or if i just bought a piece of junk.
I alsoo wondering if puttin more freeplay in would help at all. the thing is when i first put clutch in it slipped and then got to where it did it less and less but now its like 50/50 whether it will slip at full boost or not. This clutch is really annoyin !!!!
