Your clutch is all but worn out? Just my guess.

It's a good thing. Now you can get a lightweight flywheel and a decent clutch.

Hope you don't kick the clutch delay when you drive hard...might want to change the driving habit or learn to drive without having it turn on.

Have fun!

You do not have a clutch delay valve, so ignore that post.
Since you have a year 2000 with 60K miles, do you know if the clutch has ever been replaced? If it has not, I would surmize that your clutch is toast. In fact, if it is the original clutch, it is entirely possible that the clutch disc has worn itself down to the rivets. These rivets may have gouged into the flywheel already. You may be looking at a new flywheel also. I would suggest you get a lightweight one if you can spare the money. Along with that get the ACT clutch disc (re-worked OEM) and the Heavy Duty ACT Pressure Plate. You are looking at some big dollars to get this done.

I'm afraid it is the original one. money for a clutch is not a problem, i was thinking about an exedy. how much is one? does it come with a flywheel, like a pkg deal? can i get a stronger clutch with a bone stock s?
