hm, I had a problem with my clutch in my 93 impreza, it was similar. When my clutch went it was reving to 5,000 or 6,000 rpm's when I was accelerating....I would say it was your clutch if it was sluggish when accelerating.....if there is no change in acceleration, then I would say it is something else. Hope this helps ya out.

reagrds,
Nate

from your symptons described i'd say your clutch is slipping, i had this last month - so booked it in to TSL. I now have an AP organic, sti release bearing & lightened flywheel, oh and £900 missing from my wallet but it was worth it

The clutch they took out was worn down to the metal

IMHO if i were you i'd stop driving it and get it booked in for a new one asap
