Last week my rex broke it's clutch. Going to work, mash clutch and bam, clutch petal goes to floor. Cable seems OK, so, we'll pull the tranny. Thinking the bolt that holds the clutch arm to throwout bearing yoke might have broke or come loose. No such luck. Clutch and pressure plate look new. Excedy organic racing kit with less than 6K mi. The throwout bearing looks new too. Before I pulled the tranny, I checked the clutch arm where the cable attaches and it had a lot of travel before it contacted anything. What else do I need to check? Anyone else had a similar problem?
TIA

Check your clutch cable bracket and see where it is. I had to fab my D series one to fit on my B series tranny and it bent on me, clutch was hard to use.... Check that...

i think you just droped the tranny for no reason
that seems like a cable adjustment problem, been there

Damn, took me 3+ hours to get that thing out. Thought I checked the cable! Oh well, at least it's not the clutch arm inside the tranny. Thanks guys.

i know this sounds basic but make sure that when you press the clutch pedal you can see about 25 degrees or 2-3 inches of movement in the release arm. good luck

 

Same thing happened to me. The plastic nut on the end of the clutch cable had slipped over the plastic threads (obviously a weak link here), but I just readjusted the nut down & off I went. No problems for me since, although I do have a spare Integra cable just in case.

 

same problem here, just installed a new exedy clutch and now i can't put it in any gear, only if the engine is not running can i then put it in gear.. the clutch is really hard to press and i can't adjust the cable to loosen it up, what am i doing wrong? its a b16a cable s1 tranny new clutch and 88 crx si.
