Ok, here the problem. When the clutch is pushed in to start it whines/screeches something fierce. It will not shift gears either. I installed a new fidanza flywheel, mitsu pivot ball and fork, new slave and master cylinder, has a new throwout bearing, ram HD clutch kit, and a 1/4 longer slave rod. All of that has about 300miles or less on it. It drove fine for the first couple days after a rebuild the just starting that sound and wont shift gears at all.

Took her to the dealer ship and thought it was the clutch pedal. I was going to have them put a new pedal in for me. The next day they call and told me thats not the problem. I had a bad slave cylinder and possibly a fried clutch.

So I was hoping you guys could tell me the problem or help me find out what it is. :confused:

Sounds like your TOB went bad. Buy an OEM one.
