Clutch tranny issues?

I couldn't engage the clutch with the car running so I triple bleed the slave cyclinder. It's all brand new master and slave cyclinder and hard lines. I then started to think I broke the clutch fork.

So I then had the hair brain idea to pull out the transmission by myself. Probable did more harm then good. The only visual damage is the clutch. There is clutch disc peices everywhere.

Anyhow any ideas. Is the transmission gone too?

When apart, check the pilot bearing. If it freezes, you won't be able to shift as the clutch and trans shaft keeps turning the same RPM as the flywheel.

Nope..the pilot bearing went,the clutch is shattered..the only thing I would check is the Flywheel to see if the Surface is still good..The Transmission should be fine,It just sounds like the clutch just Gave up.It was it's time..now,replacement: flywheel resurface:EuroDrive,in Burlington..Get a good clutch and Pressure plate Combo(your Choice,research it or hear what others are running..you will start a Bitch Fest!..LOL!),the throw out bearing will come with it.The pilot bearing and seal are 22 bucks at Scarborough Mazda.
