ok i went out to drive the car today, and it was a pain in the but to shift into gear!!!!! and when i get it into gear, i only have about a half inch clearance from the floor of the car before the clutch engages again. i thought that this might be a sign for a new clutch, but the clutch isnt slipping at all. the clutch i have in there is a clutch masters stage 2. it was put in about 20k miles ago.



is it time for a new one? and get my synchro's fixed while im at it?

not a clutch expert* But it sounds like your Master/slave cylinder needs replacing. The same thing happened in my GT after I let my Dad Drive it. He was Suppositly going to do someone "taxes", but he was probualay practicing his launch and highway racing( sprited driving).

Before you replace anything, try bleeding it. Then go from there.
