Just wait for it to bed in a bit just like brakes have to.

oh i know that im a mechanic myself its jst alreadi done 900miles on it lol

[sideways danny]

what brand of clutch did you buy and did you clean up the flywheel first?

[mr_turbo]

yer course i did the flywheel wernt in best of shape but was gd enuff to leave in widout skimming! its only a blueprint clutch but was told it wud take 200bhp fine

Did you grease the release bearing or end of the gearbox input shaft? if so, how much? It would only take a small amount of copper slip/grease to cause you problems.

P.S. How the hell have you done 900 miles on it already!

Here's a question for someone, if the clutch was "bedded in" hard would it glaze up like pads do?

[mr_turbo]

lol i do a fuk load of driving lol its a everyday car lol nar didnt gease it up for that reason

[PukkaSilvia]

check your clutch slave cylinder freeplay again

Hopefully its not that its a shit clutch, fingers crossed

[JackieFan]

Was it defo a S13 clutch? The one we brought off Pukka was used and it still only took a good 50-80 miles to bed in properly but now it's spot on!
