Ok so i have a em1 with a b18c lsd trans s80 to be exact. Ok so when i shift it to first and hit on the gas it takes a pretty long time to move about 4500 to. 5000 rpms . Also if i let the my foot off the clutch when in first it wont shut off . I can drive also i can shift to second with out the clutch . so when on the high way and im in 4 gear and i want to down shift or even slow down just a tap on the clutch and the car slows down like it suppose to . So has any one ever had this kind of experience . At first i thought my clutch was bad and needed replacement but now i think my trans might be done.

 

I dont understand the problem??

 

Thats the thing i dont either i have to rev real high to move when in first gear. Then today i noticed that i can take my foot off the clutch and the car dosent turn off?? So im confussed shouldnt i stalled out?

 

your clutch doesn't work.

 

Well im thinkin that but when im on the high way i can drive just fine and go threw all the gear ok .

 

When the car is already moving it's easy for the clutch, but when standing and want to move is the hardest task for the clutch.

 

if you can dump the clutch in first gear and not kill the engine your clutch is gone, end of story

 

Or his clutch pedal isn't adjusted correctly, or his clutch master cylinder is shot, or his clutch slave cylinder is shot.

OP, check your clutch master cylinder reservoir, check your clutch pedal linkage, and check your clutch lines (there's only about 3 feet of line) for any leaks, kinks, or breaks.

 

Ok i checked my fluids fine i see the hoses fine. At high speeds i can shift fine . But i do think my clutch is gone . How much does a clutch install go for?

 

How do you adjust a clutch pepal ?. Also if my slAve cylinder was shot i think i woulndt be able to shift right. Cause i had a similar problem with my hatch and i could only shift when the car was off but the shift when the car was on

 

On the pedal itself, at the top, there's a threaded rod with a nut. Yes, I'm over-simplifying it. You use that nut to adjust it.

 

Oh okay but in my case i think my clutch is toast . But thanks for your help. Now what would be a good stage 2 clutch to put on . I was looking at the excedy

This will work fine for you.

Most shops average around 300-400 to do a clutch on these cars. Save some money and DIY - Very simple job if you have a friend to help and a you are not completely mechanically challenged.

 

Yea i was looking to do it myself . I did one before when i was younger on a crx i have the tools too . Thank everbody for the help

Got the same clutch from ebay. Works great.
Change your clutch and forget about it.
My old clutch looked far from worn but with the new one is like night and day.
If your old disk looks fine (like my did) it might be the springs on the pressure plate that get old and don't hold good enough anymore.
