:talon: i got a 96 talon non turbo my clutch has no pressure, got a new clutch and checked my slave cylinder and is fine i'm about to check my master cylinder,if anybody has any input on what should i do please write,i don't know what to do.

this is the problem i put the pedal in (no pressure)put the car in first as i release the clutch the car starts to move very slowly when i release the pedal all the way to the top. anybody please help. thanx.

my friend just replaced his clutch in his 96 nt eclipse, and his clutch has no pressure at all. It's seriously crazy, its hard to drive cuz its like u cant even feel the clutch. When i first replaced my clutch it was also like that, really loose, no pressure at all. One year later, its not loose anymore, but definately not as tight as my other friends with his 95nt. so IDK, but your not the only one with a clutch that has absolutely no pressure on it
 
ok a few things to check, just to get an idea of whats wrong. After replacing the clutch i take it you made sure to bleed the clutch line from the slave cylinder, and also top off the clutch fluid right? have some one step on the clutch with the car off while your lookin under it to make sure clutch fluid isnt dripping if it is you could have a leak in your clutch line its an easy and cheap fix. if its your master cyl usually youll have a puddle of fluid on the driver side floor mat. check to make sure. after you check all that let me know ifyou found anything.

When I had my clutch replaced with a 'high-performance clutch" (basically a heavy-duty OEM clutch), I did a bunch of other clutch related things, and now I have no pressure, and I actually like the way it feels. I can just stomp it for racing. Another plus is that none of my friends bug me to drive it anymore cuz they all stall it cuz they can't feel the clutch.

I dunno, I LIKE having no pressure, but w/e
 
You have to break the clutch in before full pressure will be restored. This can take 2K-5K miles of city driving.(Frequent shifts and clutch use)

I was pissed when I got a new clutch installed in my car. I hated the way it felt. It had no pressure whatsoever. A couple of weeks later, she was better than before.
 
I've had my clutch for a while, but I tend to baby it (unless I'm racing). Should I just spend a day beating on the clutch burning out everywhere and see if it tightens up?

Good God no. Well how long is a while? What I meant was normal driving using the clutch frequently.
 
it's been like 6 months. I THINK i've had 2 oil changes since the clutch was done.
