My clutch absolutely sucks...AGAIN!

I just filled up with 100 octane, start the car and the clutch pedal goes to the floor. WTF?
I reach down and pull it back up then nothing. Nada. Clutch is stuck and will not depress.

Called the rollback and have it taken to mechanic. Got a feeling I have broken ANOTHER THROWOUT BEARING.

This is getting pathetic. We just replaced everything 6 months ago. For the second time.

The only saving grace of the whole deal is that I got to sit in a GT1 at the shop. Now that is a ride. Damn door weighs about 3 ounces. Unbelievable engineering on that thing.

No not yet. Hell, the TO bearing broke only 3K miles ago. everything was replaced new then including another slave and accumulator! Mechanic just told me it is broken again but he only got as far as to take off slave and look. Kevin said maybe broken/cracked pressure plate. Who knows?

What's the total $ damage on the GT2 conversion, anyone know?

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully it won't be that expensive.

That expensive? Oh yes it will be. Second time in 6 months motor has been out car, Sux. Wondering what else I should do when I have it out besides GT2 conversion....Gonna do coolant tank for sure.

Hell I'll probably end up doing 76's!!!

Back to that damGT1. I sat in an origingal GT1, Think I have a chubby!
