MBA-Supra11 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Hey everyone, when I step on the gas the rpm rises but not the speed. Could this be a loose or too tight throttle linkage or is it what I think and the clutch is slipping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Most likely a clutch issue, a throttle issue wouldn't really cause those symptoms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martincoupe Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 sounds like clutch slip what box are you running ? and how long ago was clutch done ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Definitely clutch slipping. It's really easy to spot as if you gently accelerate everything will be fine, flooring it in a high gear will see it slip on boost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBA-Supra11 Posted September 23, 2015 Author Share Posted September 23, 2015 Thanks for the responses, I got a 5 speed Manuel and its done 157,000km. Whats the best clutch to get and where to get it from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Clutch slipping, as the other guys said, get OEM Clutch if you car is stock , maybe also check out the price of the SPEC clutch; Whifbitz on here do them Not too sure if the W58 runs a dual mass flywheel, Toyota dual mass fly wheel is extremely cheap compared to the same setup they have on more exotic marques like the Maserati Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adnanshah247 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 clutch is knackered, .......................or you may have another problem called the Toyota supra NA. as radical as the car may look it suffers from something disastrous called a 3.0 non turbo engine, meaning when you press the accelerator a PROPER supra with two gizmo's called turbo chargers take you to warp speed however the NA has a guinea pig under the hood by the name of bob who sadly suffers from asthma so when you press the accelerator poor bob is choked resulting in noise but he simply doesn't have it in him to get to you flying love you guys and NA owners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
