When im driving normally and the car is at correct operating temperature when in first and second im getting lag while pushing in the throttle Clutch is completely out. It kind of feels like the clutch is engaging for a split second then letting out it does it every so often not every time. Anyone know wtf this could be?

Your clutch could be on its way out. Might also help to check the master and slave cylinders. I had a similar problem so I replaced my clutch without the cylinders, and it still kept slipping. I replaced the master and the slave and made sure it was all bled out and it worked great

i would have figured it would slip in all gears but its only 1'st and 2'nd thats why it confused me. Thanks for the help ill pull it apart tomorrow and look clutch got replaced 100k ago so im sure its almost replacement time.

Dunno if i should replace it though since im getting ready to throw in a sr20det or if i should just replace it so the car gets me around til that time

If it isn't that bad, maybe you should just baby it until you get the SR20. Maybe someone else can chime in and give some more insight.
