my car,s13 ka24de, drives normal and all, but if i start to drive it for like 30 minutes or so and/or start to beat on it and go into higher rpms it starts to slip. I then park the car again, drive it the next morning and it doesn't slip, unless i start to beat on it again. prior to all of this my windshield got broken and it sat from like jan till like a week agao. It never had done this before. Is it really just that the clutch is going out? Should i just replace it or what?

Sounds like an early clutch failure. How many miles do you have on the clutch?

Try readjusting the clutch pedal, especially if it catches high. That's not a lot of miles.
