Evo 8 transmission problem(maybe slave cylinder)
 
So today I was driving to work and I was just cruising about 45mph in 5th gear and I had to downshift to take an exit. I pushed in my clutch and tried to switch into 2nd gear and I couldnt put it into gear. I had to rev match the mph to switch gears. When Im at a stop and in first gear with the clutch peddle all the way in, I can rev and it moves a little. I still have fluid and the peddle feels normal. I think it might be the slave or master cylinder, I have the competition stage 4 clutch. What do you guys think?

That says the clutch isn't completely disengaged. Bleed the clutch and see how it is. Make sure nothing is leaking.

Sounds to me like your slave cylinder might have taken a dump. Squeeze the boot that goes around the rod to make sure there's no fluid in it.

UPdate, Slave cylinder works fine. Pretty sure the TOB popped off the PP. Makes a shit ton of noise when the car is in gear and pushing in the clutch peddle doesnt do anything but the the slave cylinder still pushes the fork. I probably wont want to fix it till spring time. I'm done with evo clutch swaps for a while, PITA

I was going to get that from rosey, I was just waiting till my check this week to call him back on it. It only had 3k on the clutch and it happened when I was driving very slowly

My TOB broke with about 1,700 miles on it, 500 miles of which was break-in and 1,000 miles was just driving to Texas. Good work on making yours last twice as long :D

I remember you got yours warrantied, didnt you? I bought mine after comp supposedly fixed the TOB release problem. I waited 2 weeks with the clutch being on backorder untill they had the new kit out. I loved how the clutch felt, but this really pisses me off since these evo clutches are not as easy to replace as a awd dsm.

I was a prototype tester so I got mine covered, but from what I head they're doing their best to take care of customers so give them a call and explain your situation and see what they're willing to do for you.
