1st gear question...
quick question, in first gear, when you hit 3500 rpms how fast are you going?
i ask because in my car, when i hit 3500 rpm, it seems like i am going 10 mph. In 5th gear, when i hit 3k rpms im going like 60-65 mph. It seems like 1st gear has no power.
ps: is hooking up the s-afc2 the same as hooking up the s-afc? if i have the s-afc2 can i follow this guide to install it? http://www.1300cc.com/howto/how2/safc.htm

Highly doubtful clutch will slip in 1st gear.
Clutch slippage will usually appear in higher gears first.
If your clutch is actually slipping in 1st gear, it's totally gone, and you wouldn't be able to drive anywhere.
