same exact thing happened to me a month after i put my act hd/ss clutch in my crx. i was almost sure it was the release bearing that went bad. i pulled off the trans when the trans went on me and by looking at the pressure plate it looks as if the bearing went bad on the release bearing. but i could be wrong because alot of things were wrong with that pos trans.

I have a friend's Rex that has a ZC in it and when he did the swap his ACT did the same thing even after when he broke the clutch in. I looked at the tranny and I didn't see anything wrong with it, but I told him that he may have a faulty release bearing. My friend's shop who did the swap and the clutch is going to look at it and I'll let you guys know what the problem may be when it is fixed. http://www.intercrewautosalon.com
