Default clutch install problem please help?

i just installed a cluchmasers stage 3 clutch and fidanza flywheel, i'm pretty sure we got everything right except the halfshaft seal is leaking tranny fluid. the problem is it won't go into gear, it goes in fine with the car off but when running it won't even grind or anything. could it be that the tranny nees fluid? its a gsr with a ctr tranny if that helps any help is appreciated thanx ahead of time!

STAGE 3!!!!

You better have a flippin T4 at 18lbs.
But each to his own I guess...


I would try changing the tranny fluid and replacing the seals.


I don't envy your left foot's future.

Get someone in your car and tell em to press and release your clutch, the clutch fork should move back and forth. If its moving thats most likely a bad thing, if you replaced the release bearing did you installed it correctly? if you didnt maybe the the fork cant move the bearing out enuf and wont release the clutch. when you installed the clutch disc did you install it correctly if you put it in backwards the disc will stay pressed against the flywheel ( but i think it will brake if you did that). the last thing i can think of is if you got the right parts for your car. Make sure there the right parts, wrong part will cause unexpected porblems.

alright put more fluid in and car drive fine for a while but it would somteimes cut out and die for a second and then go back on but finally it turned off and wont star. it will die and the check engine light will be on then it will make a noise like a release of air pressure or something then the light turns off and it will start momentarily! PLEASE HELP!
