FIGURE OUT WHY! Or at least your best guesstimate. Overheat, low or too thick or too thin or too much lube, old & tired/loose or rebuilt too tight, too many cold unprimed startups, G-forces, tired pump, stuck relief, whatever.

Intake, cam, compression & exhaust mods.
Crank girdle is just insane.

Rear brakes stinking hot, it's the only time you're going into the fragrance rather then driving away from it?

It takes a lot to generate any smell, sure it's not coming from somewhere else?

So according to the mechanic, he said I am slipping the clutch.

As I start to throttle the car it does shutter (must be doing something wrong here?).


So if he said you're slipping the clutch like someone who's ...

DO NOT scratch the ring lands when installing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, going to get it done properly and replace the front rotors.

Replacing rotors has nothing to do with a proper or improper job unless they've been chewed half way through from alot of metal-to-metal, or their machining was improper/incompetent and they won't do it again because they say that ...

"My hunch"?
What's in it now and wadda they look like now and what was the engine doing(symptoms and conditions) before you looked at them?
What's the compression? Don't chase a fuel or timing(ignition and/or cam) problem with iridium spark plugs.

There are an amazing number of sparkplugs for a ...

Try driving it full lock right for 2-3 circles, then reverse it for 2-3 more, then do the same with the steering at full lock left. Mine hasn't made a peep for years, about 7-9000 miles, though it was making noise & stopping for a while for about 1K during 3-4 applications of the above torture ...

Some just make noise.
If using them heavy or using the brake while keeping your foot on the gas to really heat'm up doesn't eliminate or reduce the sound for a few weeks, then try working with what you've got or try a different brand.
Taper the leading edge.
Goop from parts store, gasket paper or ...

Recently noticed a squeaking/squealing sound with light braking and a bit of a grinding sound with heavier braking at slow speeds.... ...free brake checks.

What kind of noise after you've been on them heavy, 2-3 times from 100>0?? Go away for days/weeks after that?
Sure noise is Important & you ...

Thanks for reply with the fix.

15 seconds engine running

If this doesn't F'itUP, nothing will.

Does the noise disappear or not disappear if the clutch fork is moved????

The clutch release/thrust/throwout bearing would never stop making noise, if it was in fact making noise, when the clutch is not released - pedal on the floor and cannot be the your source.
It will make ZERO sound no matter ...

I sure wouldn't go for another of these colorful & pretty but ridiculously overpriced things that have proven themselves to be of very poor quality 3 times already.

Yea I have some of those in the car now and it runs like a bag of shit
Good.
Now take them out and look at them, after reading what you can from stuff like

You may even find out it's not a plug problem.

Smooth idle is a little tricky as without a IAC valve the idle is tricky to get right.


IAC = the little hot coolant controlled thingy on the TB?
It's only a semi-controlled air bypass and it doesn't lean it out, so it has nothing to do with a smooth idle, only its RPM when cold.
Move the distib ...

....to see if mine has spun the rubber a little.
Didn't the screwdriver prove that?
Only use a timing light to check that the ECU's ignition advance is working, that's all.
Time it by its performance, fast & smooth idle and only pings/detonate/pinks/spark knocks a little when abused with the ...

Severe operating conditions are
Most DD's.
in gear & driving as soon as the engine fires - like even before the warning light is off..
lots of cold starts, short trips & rarely getting hot enough so that your fingers can't stay in contact with the oil pan.
Starting with an empty filter.

...fuel economy started to decrease,... could this be due to the oil really needing a change?
does it matter hugely what sort of oil I use...
No, of course not, though there is much WWW anecdotal tales about it and many other wonderful things that happened with fresh oil inside.

Wheel bearings don't sound alarming or change at certain speeds, they're silent or have a low/deep rumble/grind increasing in volume with speed and are rarely ever heard over the wind noise.

LOOK at the tops of the tubes! Mucked up, mineralized, clogged with bits of smegma, or look free & open & clean & clear? 6 or 7 should be visible, any more then 2-3 clogged means they need cleaning out. Compressed air & garden hose work fine for loose stuff.

Bottom hose should be significantly ...
