Hi, I have an sr20 hatch that just recently started having an issue, when i'm driving if I give the car more then 50% throttle the RPM's will go up but my car wont go, then after like 2 seconds it catches and the car speeds up, in every gear. Is the clutch slipping? something with the transmission? Car is stock, thanks for inputs

your clutch is slipping. stop driving the car, or learn to cope with it until you can change the clutch; ie. when you see a hill, try to gain some momentum before you hit the hill and taper off the throttle as you ascend to attempt to save every last bit that you can. learn at what amount of throttle will slip it and try to work with it. drive only if you have to. if it blows up on you, you're stuck.
