Hi guys, been trolling here for a bit since I bought my 02 S and did some searching but haven't found anything specific to my issue.

I belive my clutch is on its way out since once the car has been pushed up over 5 or 6K rpm the clutch will feel very very light untill the car cools down. The clutch feels great on extended drives unless its rev'd like this and even after it is feeling this way it hold no problem there is no slippage whatsoever. It also dosn't need to be moving to bring this symptom on. I tested it by doing a clutch in 1st gear rev to 5K a couple of times and can up with the same issue. I am finding it strange that it would just give me a light peddal after one pull and no slip but maybe you guys have some advice. I come from driving a 500+hp Eagle Talon before this so I've had a few clutches go in my time!

Thanks in advance for any help even though I am already planning to do the clutch in the spring!
