The stock clutches are somewhat notorious for clutch fade when they get hot. I had to fight it all the time in the summer. The clutch adjustment you make when the engine is cold actually goes slightly out of adjustment and starts to drag.

Putting on an oil cooler helped quite a bit by helping to prolong and dissipate heat from the engine rapidly. Thus making the clutch in particular cooler faster and preventing the fade issue.

After installing ebc csk41 clutch springs most of that issue has now been resolved.
