clutch sticks too the floor
i was at a light and i reved to 5000 rpms and went to take off and the clutch stuck to the floor board and i had to pull the clutch up with my hand and i smelt the clutch burning smell. it has done it a few times when i go to take off and i rev it out what the hell is wrong with it. i have been driving stick for 10 years and never had this problem

There are a few posts on this if you do a quick search. This was actually my first question I had when I got my G and it's how I found NICO! So welcome aboard!
I believe it's a safety feature the G has. I think it's anything above 4500RPM this will happen.

Very interesting! Last time I revved up my engine to take off, I ended up choking and coughing from the burnt clutch smell, and I was totally flummoxed to realize that the mighty power generated by my engine as i engaged the clutch, ended up pinning my car to one spot. The driver behind me thought I was show boating, when in fact, my car had pinned itself to one spot on the surface of this earth.
In humility, i engaged the clutch like a normal stick shift driver, and I hauled my behind off with my head down in shame. Since then, I have never revved up that high before engaging the clutch.

Re: (joe603)
Yup... I am convinced this is a (crappy) safety feature of the Gjoe603 wrote:I still have the issue even after all the mods I've done and the new slave cylinder...I think its just the OEM clutch and I'll have to live with it until I go aftermarket. Bad design IMO.
I think Drew said that's the way they are designed and you can't do jack about it.
I wonder if the Sedans have this same problem??
Anyone with a 6MT sedan wanna do a lil experiment??
