hmm... might wanna bring it round sometime mate.

 

I've had a couple different clutches on my own R33 and also been thru a few skylines with different clutches installed.

 

If its completely brand new, then they need a few miles to bed in, but if it continues to slip, then maybe the pressure plate is not strong enough, or the plate material is incorrect.

Had a similar issue with a new clutch on my Supra. Do you know if the pressure plate is reground? (Most clutches will come with a new PP). The pressure plate on mine was a reground one so the pedal needed more throw to engage the clutch properly. It took over 500 miles for it to bed in, though the flywheel was not in the best of conditions. Take it easy until you've got a few hundred miles of driving, then see if it still slips.
