Rep Power: 0 clutch maybe?
sometimes the fingers on the pressure plate wear out and it will slip in certain gears..
like 2 n 4
or 1 3 5
someone i know changed out thier clutch and it got rid of the slip....

Go to Honda n buy some transmission fluid.
You should have gotten the transmission fluid change a while ago if your at 82k mileage. Honda transmissions are weaksauce.

Rep Power: 264 u wont know til you try. Go change your transmission fluid if you havent yet. 82k mileage is just about right for a transmission fluid change. Let me know if it helped

You shouldve done it at 50k. Honda transmissions are weak!
It should stop the slippin.

Rep Power: 278 Umm.... sticks don't slip because of fluid, autos do. But I had to change my fluid because the tranny was sooo notchy. It helped a lot.

Rep Power: 264 BTW, Only 2 1/2 quarts of manual transmission oil if your car is a manual. And the other way around if your transmission is an auto.
My 2nd gear was starting to slip at sharp long turns. Now my clutch because of the nitrous.

Rep Power: 264 OEM, Im just going to replace it with a new one. Exedy clutches go for like 100 a pop. I drive alot so I would hate how the organic clutches feel. I think the racing clutches are way to hard to press. I'm just going to get a lightweight flywheel and oem clutch set if I were to change it.
80 shots is not that bad.

Rep Power: 0 are you crazy.
