So basically I just bought a pretty new used 97 eclipse gst, I was comming off a off ramp because I was going down the wrong free way and the off ramp banked way harder than I expected, going to fast my brakes locked up and i drifted side ways, my car hopped over like almost a foot of curb and into a 45 degree downward angle of ice plant and dirt. stuck and unable to drive my way out, I had to get it towed out, at first the car had power, and with no check engine lights and minor structural damage to the car I was going to attempt to drive it home. Then I noticed the clutch felt weird, like every time I shifted the reach got longer and longer untill it would only engage right as i fully depressed the clutch, then nothing. My engine was still running and there were no leaks under my car that i could see (it was at night). So I towed it to a shop and are hopefully gonna get it diagnosed tomorrow. Any idea what that might be specifcally though? how much is this gonna cost me? Is it my clutch or tranny? I honestly dont know too much about clutches or transmissions I'm kinda mechanically inclined but no master or anything. thanks
