5sp ??
FINALly put a 5 speed in my car but now Idk if it drives right? I have a 99 impreza trans with matchig diff 3.90 and not sure how hard 1st and 2nd pull? ANYone know? Seems sluggish to me but could be just the gearing or the trans is bad? Drives fine other then that

Re: 5sp ??
In 1st and 2nd, the RPMs go high but the speed barely increases...it shifts fine but not sure how its suppose to drive. Idk if that makes sense lol it doesn't pull like i thought it would I guess....

Re: 5sp ??
Did you put a new clutch in? what did you use? Sounds more like a badly slipping clutch. Might be out of adjustment as well...

Re: 5sp ??
Exactly what I thought so I put a new clutch in on Sat. It's an ACT and the flywheel looked perfect. SO Idk what the problem is. Pedal feels fine....

Re: 5sp ??
It may not have any clearance between the throw out and the pressure plate. Check the throw out fork to see if there is some freeplay.

No dude, he has a specific problem related to a 5-speed that's already in his car.
