*worn clutch guide tube
I've been tracking my s50 e30 for about 5 years (with G260 trans). The first 4 were with a Sachs m20 clutch. Eventually I started getting some slippage and figured the clutch had enough. I ordered a Spec stage 2 to put in. With the trans out, the Sachs clutch didn't look awful. The guide tube had some slight scoring, but nothing too concerning, so I put it back in.
Now, after two track days with the Spec clutch, I'm experiencing the same slippage. I'm thinking the guide tube may be the culprit, but I don't have enough experience to be sure. I'm not looking forward to pulling the trans again and certainly dont want to do it a third time if I don't get it right on this try.
Please give me your thoughts. thanks
