*HELP my clutch does not work!

Ok so i figured I would post a conclusion for all those who were following. By trial and error this has been my conclusion--- however given the circumstance of how the installation went-- I didnt have the opportunity to take exact measurements. The clutch engages wonderfully now--- better then the stocker ever did---and it even feels (at first drive) faster--- probably due to the slipping clutch i removed.

With the original clutch/flywheel setup the RB20 trans and throwout collar were at their max potential on my car... meaning when i depressed the clutch it BARELY disengaged the clutch. So in my opinion (no measurements to back it up) with a resurfaced flywheel, and the ACT PP and 6 puck disk, the overall combination was thinner then OEM setup--- therefore not allowing the throwout bearing enough travel to disengage the clutch.

Solution:

We pulled apart the RB20 trans and replaced the throwout collar with a ka/sr unit which is 3/8" longer then the original bearing/collar I had in there. Now with everything back together, when the pedal was depressed the clutch would disengage, however i still felt a slight bit of resistance when turning the driveshaft.... so with everything adjusted for max throw there was only one thing getting in the way--- and it was teh clutch pedal block plate that stopped the pedal from going all the way to the floor. Removed with the rotozip--- I now have enough travel to fully disengage the clutch.
