Is there pressure behind your clutch pedal? Push the car a little or have a friend do it while you sit in the car with the clutch in and pressing on 1st gently. Don't press too hard or the crappy shift forks will snap.

Check your master cylinder and clutch fluid levels. Open the hood, facing the windshield from the bumper the clutch reservoir is the upper right-most bottle thingy.

it's not your pressure plate, it's you clutch master cylinder or the slave cylinder need to be relaced.

try bleeding the clutch, the slave cylinder probably isnt holding any pressure.

bleed the system, your PP could be shot tho, and you cant disengage the clutch, happened 2 me. Had 2 start it up in 1st gear and powershift everywhere and rev match for a while till i got funds to fix it. Made me a better driver.
