So how do i know if my clutch is going out? It catches alot higher now than it did before, but I dont feel any slipping.

Mine is like that and I'm about to switch it out soon. Tech also said to change out slave cylinder too.

if your changing the clutch might as well do the flywheel too. as long as you did all the work(or paid someone) to get to the damn clutch, save your self the time and money

I might just get the flywheel resurfaced. Keeping it all stock.

I already have all the clutch components already. Just don't want to shell out any extra. Its already costing a small fortune for everything to be installed.

You still have some time till replacement. Most ap1's will need it sooner rather than later.

I heard you could put in it 6th and quickly let the clutch out. If it doesn't stall immediately, it's slipping too much. No idea if this is accurate.

Most not all ap1's are around the 60k-70k range today. Clutch engagement will be high like Karim's and mine.
