Finally changed the clutch and totally transformed the car! Can now give it full gas in low revs without the clutch slipping and the car pulls much better! Such a nicer experience to drive it now!

Anyways here are some pictures, didn't take many unfortunately:

Some bolts were very seized, had to cut one off

New vs. old. Still some meat left on the old one, but was still slipping...

And filling back up with oil

I've also bought some used rims that I need to repaint and swap over some new tyres.

Plans forward are that I want to lower it, might need spacers too after that, possibly a 4-2-1 manifold + straight through centre pipe and no backbox, also lastly might buy a dreamscience with FRP map on it to give it some more power. Other than that, sadly its already rusted through again so will tackle that once more later on. Also going to see if we can do something about an oil leak that I believe is from the valve cover. Thanks for reading :)
 
Seeing your clutch, it is possible that either your cranshaft or gearbox oil seal is leaking and lubricating the clutch and that is what made it slippery? I hope you have checked that?
