Hmm I have one for ya...

In friends 300ZX, getting off the freeway in 5th, go to downshift to 4th...

Push cluth in, second I moved clutch it pushed my foot off and fell to the floorboard mad.gif

Still had gears to hard shift but cluth pedal sits on floor, or with hand you can move it to resting position but once touched it falls to the floor.

EDIT (Mod move?)
*Prob should be moved to other vehicles since not a tib, my bad

clutch is fine. either the slave cyl, or master cyl took a dump. just visually going over either should tell you whats wrong without even touching a tool.

It might be the pressure plate not releasing. If its not the master/slave

Well persay how can you tell if the master/slave cylinder is bad? There is no leaks and the level of fluid changes when you play with the pedal but once stopped, fluid then goes back up to normal.
