Spirited Driving

So i was doing some "spirited driving" tonight... and my clutch pedal resistance dropped to say 10%. Im having trouble changing gears. Its almost as if I have to pump the clutch three times before Im able to get into the next gear(all gears for that matter). Any takes on this? I'll check on the reseviour (sp?) first thing in the morning as it 12:47am.

samething happened to my brother's car (integra). had to pump the clutch. his was due to wear and tear. it had to get towed to a shop from home bcuz it couldn't go into gear. got a new clutch, problem solved... similar problem happened to me too. had to pump the clutch. good thing my car broke down in my garage as i was parking. had to get it towed to hi-pace where i got my exedy clutch. the problem with mines was that there was a small metal piece that some how got loose and got stuck in between the clutch and flywheel - it was not bcuz of wear and tear, but hey, i still got a new clutch. have it check out right away b4 your car stalls on u and u have to get it towed. good luck.

Okay... so i checked my clutch fluid level and its fine. I did notice that when i slightly rest my foot on the clutch pedal, I can feel engine an increased amount of engine vibration (car iddling). It feels as if it binding with something. Hmm?

sup shaggs, yeah that was me and the kids. i did notice the bugeye wrx w/gun metal rims.
