I posted this in another section, but this seems to be the place to get the most help. Basically, I just purchased my first project car, a 96 240sx SE. When I test drove it I knew it would need a new clutch, horrible slippage. An hour after picking it up, it completely died. I could put it in any gear, and the car would just rev, no acceleration at all. There was a bad odor... the burnt up clutch. Does this sound like its simply needing a new clutch, or could there be actual transmission problems? Im far from an expert.

Thanks,

Joey
