usually what ive been told is when your clutch starts slipping, you need a new one. stock clutch?

the only adjustment that I know of is on the side of the tranny where you can take up the slack of the cable as it streches over time. On stock setups I think that also can be done on a limited amount by lifting up on the clutch pedal. Neither of those adjustments can help a slipping clutch they are only for adjusting for freeplay in your pedal. You need a new clutch if it is slipping...

Clutch


CenterForce Dual friction is a good clutch. I purchased a eClutchmasters Stage II from Ebay and I love it. Stay away from a King Cobra clutch if you are puttin out any kind of power to the wheels.

You clutch cable should be self adjusting. Looks like you need a new clutch. and while your at it buy an adjustable clutch quadrant.
