Drive Train Problem!!!! NEED HELP

OK so i am driving my car around (i have a 92 vr4) and i noticed that the car would shift fine throughout all the gears all the way to redline, but when i got on it in any gear it would make a sound like the clutch was slipping. It felt like somehthing wasnt grabbing right. Si i had a couple people look at it and i came to the conclusion that it was my clutch cuz it was still the original clutch so i replaced it with a spec stage 2+ and lightened fly wheel. When i got my car back i broke it in for about 1000 miles and when i started to get on it, the same sound and feel would happen. It only happens when i really get on it, and does it it every gear as well. What could be the problem?? Could it be my transfer case or rear LSD? I really need to get this problem fixed. Thanks

Ugh... I went through the same thing but I never figured it out... But as far as I could figure out:

It could be master/slave
It could be a bad rubber hose
It could be an out-of-spec flywheel
It could be air in the clutch line

So in the order of cheapest to most expensive:
bleed the clutch line again
change the hose leaving to the slave cylinder
Change the slave/master cylinder
Change the flywheel back to a OEM one.

If none of that works... Well I think someone here changed out the hard line for the clutch and it "appeared" to work...

A sound like the clutch is slipping? Could you describe that sound?

ok the sound is kinda like a popping sound and it sometimes sounds like it backfired out the exhaust. I talked to one of my instructers at school (UTI) and they said the check the fuel consumption and things dealing with the fuel control. I guesse you could say that i feels like the car is bogging out.

well if its bogging have u tryed to regap ur plugs? ik i turned my boost up and it would be fine untill i got on it hard that it would start to kinda stutter and bog but i regaped my plugs and problem solved, as far as the clutch im not sure.

Clutches don't make sounds unless something is really physically broken on it. Sounds like you need to change your plugs.

ok sounds good i will definately try that if i just buy new plugs what should i gap them too. should i just gap them a little smaller than the regular spec. cuz i did do the free boost mod to my car recently so that sounds like that could very likely be the problem. thanks for the advice.
