Ok so I was driving home from work get to a red light take off in first switch to second but it won't go in gear so I try third, fourth, and fifth. Nothing. I couldnt seem to get it in any gear. Finally I get it in to third and get home like that. I didn't smell my clutch burning or anything so I don't think it could be that. My clutch pedal did feel a bit different. Mayb my clutch cable came lose?? I would really appreciate any answers.
Any suggestions on what clutch to get? I had a centerforce dual friction clutch in mine but I've been hearing bad things about them lately! Oh and thanks for the help guys! I talked to a transmission shop and I told him the problems I was having and he told me "sounds like your synchros are bad, it's probly time for a rebuild."

I'm guessing that you're gonna replace the clutch, cable, quadrant, adjuster. I found a steeda kit on amazon. Cable/quadrant/firewall adjuster. $100. Good deal.

I would say get a ram hdx I got that for my car it's better than stock. To also make sure ur flywheel is okay to. Get it resurfaced. To do it your self isn't bad to be honest, it take's more time unbolting the exhaust. The clutch is 250 American muscle. Free shipping.
I've had nothing but spec's in my car since the stocker crapped out. I've been through a few but that's more because of my style of driving, lack of proper cable adjustment, and being over the rated HP limit of the clutch. All in all, they are a real good clutch.
Sounds like a tranny problem. Not clutch. If it was the clutch it wouldn't disengage and the car would lurch..k edit. Maybe not. And as far as clutches I suggest google. I have read really good and bad about spec. I have a centerforce df and love it but I have also heard horror stories about them. If your at stock hp I would just stick with oem.
Spec stage 2 or 2+ should be good. They are all hit or miss. Spec, centerforce, ram. A good break in is key. Not sure how much hp your car had stock. Get a clutch that is rated above what you have though.
Easy stop and go city driving for a few hundred miles. You're gonna want to put your foot in it but you have to take it easy for a bit. I only have a couple hundred miles on mine and haven't went full throttle yet. It's smoothing out the more I drive it and so far it feels good. I have a spec stage 3+ in mine.
On my 03 Gt when I push the clutch in all the way in there is a sound like a small pop. The car runs good and shifts fine. Just wondering what it is. It happens when the car running and when its not running?

If you buy a clutch kit, odds are it will come with the pilot and possibly TOB. When I Bought my Spec 3+ kit it came with both of those items. I didn't use the TOB because the spec one is not as sturday as the OEM ford piece, so I bought a ford one for like $25.
But I would say yes, buy them both if they don't come with your clutch when you buy it.

Hey if you wouldn't mind pointing me in that direction that would be great! I gotta do that whole setup as well.....would you guys recommend I just resurface my flywheel or get a new one? And if I should get a new one what are the differences between the billet steel and billet aluminum other than weight?
