Just had my slave done. The pressure hose to the slave was bad also.
First my clutch was sliping some in high boot/rev situations, mostly when real hot/hard running. Then the pedal to the floor issues showed me the slave/hose was bad. But now since it is fixed, it has not slipedanymore it. I assume the that bad slave was allowing the clutch to partially engage and thus was slipping.
So anyone that is experienceing some slipping clutch, don't think you have to run out and get a whole new clutch

Went shopping
Well, I finally ordered everything i think I'll need. I just bought the spec stage 2 kit and hardware kit. I bought a new master and slave clutch cylinder. Then, I bought an oil filter and some super blue brake fluid. Also, some intake manifold gaskets for when I swap turbos here soon. My heart sank when I saw that I had spent ~1000 bucks in one stop. Took a lot of work for a 16 year old to get that much money. O well, in my opinion, it's money well spent.
