Tranny slipping in 3rd and 4th- is it replacement/upgrade time?

I've searched the archives, and not found much, so here it goes...
Recently, i've noiticed my clutch slips in 3rd and 4th around 3000-3500 RPM under WOT. I've got a '94 900SET with about 81.5k miles w/original clutch but the clutch cable was replaced around 45k. (also, I don't know if it's related, but i've noticed a sort of shudder/fluctuation in engine idle when i'm stopped, can't remember it it's when in neutral or in first with clutch depressed). So now a couple of questions:
Am I talking about a new clutch?
Anyone know p/l prices on dealer replacement with OEM parts?
Is that hydrualic upgrade acutally availible, or still a pipe dream.
Are there other clultches i should cosider (i.e. performance/sport)- keeping in mind that my left knee cartilage can't handle much more pedal pressure.
Any advice, or info is much appreciated
