one day i went to the mall and was backing into a spot and and i put my foot on the clucth and i heard like a pop noise and of course was like wtf?!?so after i pulled in i turned off the car and pumped the clucth a couple of times like 10 or so it kept makin that pop noise so i got my lunch in the mall came back and did it again and after one time it stopped so i thought it was ok from there then thats where it happend it felt so hard to put the car in gear not just my 1st gear like all and reverse is the worst. I had one of my friends look at it and he said i could be my clutch or my syncros.Please any information would be nice i'm still a lil new to this whole thing.Also how did some of you fix this kind of problem if you had similar.

iight i have a question...here recently my clutch has been acting a lil weird. I have to push the pedal all the way to the floor to disengage it, and as soon as i let off the slightest bit it engages?? There is no in the middle its either in gear or its not.....im not sure what the problem is, and just wanted a few opinion....Thanks
any body have the clutch masters stage 4 w/ aluminum flywheel?? just installed it the other week and now i have a raddel when the car is running in neutral but it goes away when i push the clutch in .!!??? now i called clutch masters and they are telling me that the stage 4's will have a raddle like that but im not 100% convinced like i was thinking it might be a through out baring that is making the noise (poped out) (broke a clip off)???? just seems a little wierd it's prety loud...any ideas?

Without hearing it, I would guess it is probably gear noise. There is a simple way to narrow it down. If the noise goes away as you barely push the clutch then it may still be the release bearing, but if it only goes away when the clutch is disengaged (pedal near the floor) then I am 98% sure it is gear noise.
Because the new disc and the lighter flywheel will not dampen the torsional vibrations as well as the stock parts, the gears periodically rattle, especially at certain conditions (such as no load in neutral). Of course this only will happen when the transmission spins so the clutch has to be engaged for the noise to occur if it is in fact gear rattle. No harm will come from it.

just look in the how to forums for removal of the transmission. it shows you how to pull transmission and then once its out you will see how the modular clutch just kinda sits in there. its a no brainer job. its the first transmission i've ever pulled and first clutch i've ever replaced myself and there was nothing to it. dont remember the guys name but he wrote a great how to.

okay i tryed that when the car is running in neutral it's rattling like you had said as soon as i start pushing the peddle down it goes away so (through out barring) maybe right? but also when the car is off and i pust the peddle down real slow i feel like a hard spot(little crunch like ) about just past half way down ... sound like through out barring??
BTW thanks for the info!!
okay soo i changed my clutch the other day put the tranny adn everything back in and its still having a hard time shifting... like getting into reverse the gears grind any body know why? adn while in gear my whole tranny shakes if anyone knows lmk please..
when I rev my car to redline it inches forward. So the clutch isn't fully disengaging which I assume would cause premature wear and heat the clutch so it slips. I had this problem with my centerforce clutch so it would never hold well because it was always screwed up. Replaced with an ACT clutch and I still have the same problem. I think i adjusted the pedal all the way out and it still doesn't help. I replaced my slave cylinder and it still didn't help. I have the stock tob and 59k miles stock clutch was holding no problems before i went to these aftermarket ones that are having problems.
Back about 6 months ago my clutch started slipping when fully engaged and under a load. I thought it was a little premature for the clutch to go as I only had 50k on the car but I ended up replacing it.
Clutch was great for a few weeks then the new clutch started slipping again. I had also noted that the pedal was slowly getting harder and the pedal travel longer to engage the clutch. I thought I would shoot a master cylinder at it this time. I went to a friends house to install the master cylinder and before hand I had him get in the car and feel the pedal. He has a twin disk on his SRT4 and he said my pedal was way harder than his twin disk.
So we proceeded to replace the master cylinder and afterwards the difference was night and day. The clutch engagement was crisp and pedal was soft as a pillow.
Just a week later the pedal started to get harder and clutch engagement lazy. Takes alot of pedal travel to engage the clutch.
So this time I decide to replace the slave cylinder. Replaced it and not much of a change at all. The pedal is a little softer but engagement is still wrong.
Now my friend with the twin disk has had his pedal get real hard all the sudden and break the master cylinder plunger off at the pedal. We replaced the master cylinder and it was fine for a few weeks then it got hard and broke again. He thinks he might have a bad 1-2 fork also because it has horrible shift selection (IE griding) before the master cylinder broke and has horrible shift selection with the pedal rigged to work.
Anyway, could someone please shed some light on this for me? What is up with the hydraulic system?

Just to reiterate, when I changed the master cylinder I thought I had fixed the problem for sure. It was 100% better. Felt like a brand new car again. To my disappointment it only lasted about a week and the pedal started to get hard and the clutch didn't engage as quickly anymore.
I'm starting to lean toward these master cylinders. Maybe they are just garbage?
I actually don't think it's the master cylinder. Maybe a connection of the slave cylinder...like where there is that quick disconnect tab to the right of the tranny. If that isn't sealed up right, then it will make the clutch pedal REAL firm. Then you will definitely break the clutch pedal pivot point.
