Just found out today the clutch is slipping at high and hard RPMs... This would suggest its a faulty pressure plate? both the pressure plate and disc is brand new!!

:S

IMO the clutch should not slip at high and hard RPM's.

When I go from 1st to 2nd to 3rd (with my 4.57's and shifting at the 4th beep) and use the clutch as an "on-off switch", (yes, I know thats hard on the driveline) it doesn't slip at all.
Even with warmed-up S-02's there is a little chirp going 1st to 2nd.
2nd to 3rd gives a bit of a "bang in the driveline", no I'm not shifting smooth.
OEM parts.

it is either air in the clutch fluid or you will have to open up the clutch and pressure plate. And recheck it. Did you install yourself? Either than that I don't know
