Nissan Maxima Clutch Problem

Hi,
I have Nissan maxima 1996. recently I changed its clutch but I think that it loses the power of acceleration.
I already changed its spark plugs and 1 ignition coil. but no acceleration gain.
please help me out of this.

Seems to me its still slipping -did you replaced the clutch assembly-that's clutch, pressure plate and release bearing? If so and adjusted the free play and pedal height to specs-go to this walk thru links: http://www.2carpros.com/articles/engine-hesitates and http://www.2carpros.com/articles/engine-has-low-power-output

Clean the airflow meter, test the throttle position sensor idle and wide open throttle voltages and also check the fuel pressure it its within specs-
