Default gears grinding?

ok, so I reached 130mph in my si (close course of course) and when I reached 130, my RPM's started to drop gradually.....it was really strange.........and now when I shift into any gear it shakes quite a bit and less while just giving it a little gas, but I can feel vibration in the clutch pedal as well as a small amount in the gas pedal.......please help me, and tell me its just something minor b/c Idont have any money to fix anything

sounds like your clutch is slipping if your engine rpms were increasing w/out any increase in vehicle speed
bleed your clutch

dude at 130 mph youre chillin at or above redline...sounds to me like you hit fuel cutoff and it also sounds like your motor is on its way out...spinning a h23 at that speed for more than an instant is a bad, bad idea.

no, I said they were DECREASING while giving it gas..........thats the weird part........when does fuel cutoff start on a 1994 si?........and the engine got checked out by a machanic and theres no problems, and this guy knows what he's doing.........the car has only 118K miles on it
