Clutch problem?
Discussion
Think I might have a problem with my clutch. If I'm in 3rd or 4th gear and use more than 2/3rds throttle the car just doesn't seem to accellerate, but the engine revs go up. It has happened anywhere between 30 and 60 mph so I don't think its speed related.
Not sure if there are any noises, its hard to tell with the full Wortec blaring and supercharger whining away.
Although it only seems to happen on damp roads
God I love this car

Most likely clutch worn out.
Mine has this annoying alarm system that sits on the passenger seat.
If say i'm in 3rd gear- 50mph and then speed up to what the alarm thinks is too quickly I get this ear pearcing shreek for a few seconds. I find shouting back at it soon shuts it up. It then also stays quiet until the trip is over.
on the down side tho, I find I don't get any sexy time that night if the alarm goes off.

i find that if you drive fast all the time it gets used to it and only sounds when your being really silly Funny how little kids love the Monaro. My 4 year old god daughter thinks it's amazing, the other day she just kept on asking me to drive faster
- never like to push it when little'un is in the back, but just thought a quick prod of the throttle down the slip road would be fun. Got to the bottom, supercharger screaming, and she says "Awww I wanted you to drive faster!" 

Then moments later she says "I DO like that noise" (referring to the supercharger).
Respect is due for my little trainee petrolhead
