Default Hard clutch peddle?

My clutch peddle is hard as a rock. I bought the car like this and need to know what could some of the problems. Also the car will not go into 2,3,4 when on it hard over 3500 or so. Could all this be related or are they seprate issues. Thanks

Sounds like you have some sort of blockage in your hydraulics.

Think the drill mod will help? Also, doesnt seem to be a stock clutch. Does have some chatter.

It engages like a normal clutch. Just the peddle is hard to push in. And when at WOT it will not go into gear. Almost like its not releasing all the way. I really want to know why its so hard to push in.

Sounds like you need to pull that tranny and look at the clutch.
You got something not workin in there.
I'm betting that the clutch is falling apart

Thanks, I was planning on putting a SPEC Stage 3 and the upgraded slave. I hope this will fix it for me.
