Default clutch gone?

My clutch absolutly stinks of burning after every drive..... but there is no loss of performance,clutch does not slip,pedal feel is unchanged,absolutly no change in driving terms,just smells to high heaven


Am i paranoid or is it about to leave me stranded at a junction somewhere?

may be break related like shoes or a pad sticking can smell similar to clutch burning. if it were clutch am sure it would need to be noticably slipping to smell imo..

Spot on it would seem,as having had a further look my nsr caliper might be sticking,as the disc is noticably hotter than the osr after a drive,ems to come and go as the smell is not constant,but when it is its really noticable...... put some new pads in few weeks back and didnt notice any probs with the caliper slide then,so must have just gone....

i know when i did my rear pads (again after red stuff lasted about 5 months) i had to just take the edge of the little noggings that slide on the calliper as to me they was a bit tight in the grooves, dont really like the caliper set up tbh
