New clutch not engaging after 6 months. HELP!
i swapped the tranny and clutch 6 months ago with a clutchmaster 3 kit on my 99 si.
this morning, i had to rev the car to 2500 rpms just to get get to go in first gear. now while i was driving, i cant get it to move in gear anymore. the engine runs, i stick it in first gear and give it some gas while releasing the clutch and it goes no where. i tried it in all the gears including reverse, and it goes no where. starting the car and throwing it in first gear, when i release the clutch it doesnt jerk and die like its supposed to.
now the clutch, flywheel, pressure plate is only 6 months old. the tranny i got was from a hydro jdm b16 sir2. the only thing i can think of is the clucth, but its only 6 months.
help!

if it is the clucth disc, would i be able to put a stock clutch on the xtreme pressure plate that came with the clutchmaster3?
If you decide to go back to the stock disc be sure not to be too agressive with it or the same thing will happen. IMO I think the Xtreme pressure plates are a bit too extreme for daily driving. Might want to consider a less agressive setup.

tranny,clutch pressure plate, fork, throwout bearing, and flywheel is out. lines and everything looks fine. no warpage. no oil leaks. only thing i can find wrong is that one of the springs in the clutch is loose. i can rock it back and forth with my fingers. it doesnt move when i shake the whole clucth disc though. can this be the cause of not causing my clutch not to engage?
the spring shouldnt be loose and sometimes a piece of the disk around the spring will break off and go in to the pressure plate....
