When it doesn't grab; when it starts slipping.

If when you floor it and it doesn't give you as crisp a "punch" or you feel it slip with the pedal all the way out.

Barely start to disengage the clutch, like heavily rest your foot on the pedal, and if it slips bad, then you need a new one.

Like previously stated, while cruising at a steady speed, and punch it but it doesnt have that get up and go. Or it lags before you feel the power kick in.

yeah before i change mine I would floor in 4th and just watch the rpms go up without me even moving.

After I put in a competion stage 2 clutch and ACT 8.8 flywheel, whew I didn't no the car was this fast.

like the others said, test it by going slow, lets say 20mph, put it in 4th and give it gas like you were on the dyno. If the rpms go up but you don't gain speed like you should, clutch is slipping.
