i've heard numerous stories of how the 99-00 civic si's had a real bad clutch (slipping even before hitting 30k mi), well i bought my si used and now i have 27k and my clutch doesn't catch near redline at the end of every gear into the next gear (i.e. 1-2, 2-3, etc.) could there be somethin wrong with the springs in my clutch? i mean, could it be possible that my clutch doesn't grab because of somethin other than the clutch/flywheel being worn? help plz!

 

By slippage are you meaning, not instant grabing of the clutch? If so, you have to remember that this is a stock clutch and it's not meant for hard driving like that. Don't get me wrong the Si clutch is good, but it won't catch the power instantly like a aftermarket one will. And you WILL feel some slippage, but it will grab after a second. My sugestion to you is to get a performance clutch. It's like night and day when compared to the stock one.
