I have a problem with the gearbox in warm weather especially. After driving for about half an hour - 40 minutes the gearbox slips whenever i put it in gear, and only seems to get worse doing so.
The gearbox is that of an ITR 98 spec, with a Exedy oem replacement clutch and spoon flywheel.
The weird thing is i've had this with my S4c as well, specially in warm weather with a LSD motorsports clutch and Spoon Flywheel.
I thought it was the clutch, so when i got the chance replaced that with the gearbox.
The only thing i haven't tried is the OEM flywheel yet.
Can it be that the clutch slips on the flywheel because the flywheel might be too 'slippery' for it to catch grip? I have no idea whether that's possible but my options are running out...
i told my mate who's a mechanic, and he ripped apart my car before, and told me the LSD motorsports clutch basically f*cked my flywheel up so he'll replace it soon. He tried sanding the flywheel up to make the surface more rough but he told me it's like a mirror now (as smooth as it is) so our options are just this one.
you guys think that's the issue here?
