Revs go up but no speed increes
ok l8tly i been having this annoying issue with my 03 tiburon gt 5 speed....in any gear the car runs n drives fine, with normal gas is being given rpm's and power are normally increesing. But when i put it to the floor the RPM gauge shows a HUGE FAST increese in RPS's n fast almost like the tires are spinning on ice but the tires arnt and the speed goes up VERy slow...
when i just give it gas normally slow and dont pin it to the floor the rpm's and speed increes normally without issue....the only time it happens is when i step on it....
cause? im guessing it might be my clutch....anyone?

If your clutch is slipping, it will only get worse. Every time you floor the gas and feel it slipping, you are contributing to the problem. Baby the gas pedal and get parts together . . . this is a warning period, and the switch from "drivable" to "towed home" can happen quickly when the last of the good portion of the clutch decides to let go.
