OK, Driving my s13 yesterday with my pal in the passenger seat.. im behind a gayass vr6 jetta so i decide to do a little smoke show , so i rev up drop the clutch booom im spinin all through second gear, so then i shift to 3rd and im cruisin along and i goto push in my clutch and wow no pedal at all goes straight to the floor and stays there , so i figure its the master but its a brand new nismo i just put it on 3 days prior, so i do some tests not it! then i look at the slave and its perminatly stuck out and i can move it with my fingers?? so ive decided thats the problem cause i did they bypass were the line hooks direct into the slave and it might be to much for it??

Any input would be helpful im starting to lose faith!!

^^^ wow, talk about a buzzkill.

I'll try to help you out there lil' slugger. Check the rubber line going to the slave. It could have failed internally and is acting like a 1-way check valve now.

I guess we know who was driving the Jetta......

Sounds like the slave failed. Could be it couldn't take the higher pressure of the fully working new master.

Is your clutch engaged at the moment? It could be that the pivot ball in the transmission broke and now there is nothing for the fork to push against.

Good Thought. I did not think of that option.

ya that actually makes sense from what im looking at... cause i put a new slave on and when its fully engaged it doesnt disengage the clutch at all i mean not even a little.... is that a pretty common thing for that fork pivot to break?

I'm not aware of it being common at all. I have a twin disk in the track car on the stock pivot, and haven't had any issues.
