HELP!!! Clutch/Transmission Problems
posting for 1Cloudwalker1 (trial restrictions)
i had my teg for only about 3 weeks now, i also learned to drive manual in this time, the last 2 weeks i've gotten a hang of the threshold on first gear completely and drive fine, no problems, and then all of the sudden yesterday i was leaving the gas station and when i let out to threshold while giving gas it seemed like i let it out too far and the car was shaking rhythmically like it was about to stall so i let out more and gave gas, i tried again and again and it still does that, it feels as if threshold has gotten shorter and is extremely difficult to find and hold, i also tried getting around 7 rpm in second and shift into third to see if it grinds and it didnt but it went into third pretty tough. Then today i parked and when i was stopped (car running) i put it into first to see if its ok and when i did i heard a knocking sound which seemed to be coming from the transmission, i made sure that clutch was down to the floor and it was, sound went away after a little while. I also don't know if I have a racing clutch or if it's just an old clutch, it's pretty tough to get to the floor, it goes smooth, but it's hard, but my friend said it could be a racing clutch, that pops up fast, so I don't know what it could be, help me out (this happened out of nowhere by the way, not progressive or anything), help me out please
cliffs: threshold seems to be extremely small in first gear. Shifting to 3rd seems a bit tough in high rpms. Put it into first gear while stopped and transmission started knocking. I have a tough clutch, don't know if it's a racing clutch or if it's worn out.
update: i was stopped, put it into first gear, clutch down to the floor, didnt let it out, didnt give gas, as soon as i put it into first it stalled on the spot, shook once but the car was still on.

ya went to the dealership, the clutch is fucked, so i found some shops that will do the installation for about 350 labor, I don't know what kind of clutch I should get, I can get a honda clutch from the dealership or I can get an aftermarket clutch but I heard that it's not good to put a performance clutch on a stock car, so I'm confused
do you really think that I could have fucked something up just because I learned on it? I mean I just stalled out a few times, grinded a gear like twice, so really I don't think I drove it hard enough to **** up anything
