I've notice the past couple times I went to drive my 02 type-s that when I go to accelerate the rpm's will go up but my car doesn't go anywhere. This problem seems to happen the worst when actually trying to drive outside of the normal going to the store. Any type of "fast" driving or trying to hit vtec just isn't an option. I was told maybe it was a vacuum leak but thought to ask you guys before I go chasing a problem that isn't correct. thanks in advance for any help!
Loss of power when hitting gas!!!

Classic sign of a slipping clutch.
Yup , same thing is happening to mine , I'll be in 4th gear trying to speed up and the rpms shoot up but the speed stays the same , you should pop your hood and see if you can smell the clutch burning just to be sure , but I'd say you should be looking for a new clutch soon bud !
