Default What happened?

I think my clutch just went out or maybe the bolts for the rear tranny mount weren't tight enough. I was just getting on it before getting home and driving up my street she didn't want to go in any gear. It started engaging as I was holding the clutch trying to get her in to gear. What do you guys think and besides checking rear tranny mount where should I start.

trans mount wont cause that.

I would start with the hydraulic fluid, make sure its clean.
new fluid and bleeding it properly might be best.

check the trans fluid too. Maybe drain that and replace it.

if its not fluid, then start checking the master and slave cylinder, the clutch..

how many miles are on the car, what clutch, stock HP?

Thanks ibanez7, it's got 64xxx miles, new cam 231/237 592/599 112, no cats, slp intake with ss hood, programmed for everything. Fresh trans fluid change, black clutch fluid and low I'll start there....sounds like a bitch though.
