sounds like you didnt have it 'coupled' together good enough, at the slave cylinder. We had that problem on a car, and thats what it was. If the peddle goes stiff, dont force the peddle down, or you'll brake it off the fire wall. Just snap the lines back together, and pull back on the release ring.

hope that helps.

thanx man...neone else with any other experiences with the upgraded clutches? i dont want to blow master cylenders daily cuz they arent cheap...could it have been from my previous problems too? or have people blown these when they upgraded their clutch or could the mechanic have done somethin wrong. thanx again

its probably just that it wasnt locked together all the way. Just make sure you have your next one locked together, and if your peddle ever gets stiff again, dont force it. Just hop out, and check the connector.

I doubt it was any relation to the aftermarket clutch, since SPEC uses stock slave cylinder setups......
