I think my clutch is gone

My car will not go in gear sometimes. With the car in 1st gear and the clutch all the way to the floor it jerks like wants to move foward.

What is a good clutch better than stock for a daily driver?

What's wrong with a stock clutch?

Are you running increased power levels? Drag racing alot? Big burnouts?

If you're not doing a lot of those three, stock is a good cheap way to go.

Otherwise, the only clutch I've not heard bitching about is ACT.

I know there are aftermarket clutches that are a lot cheaper than stock. Like the one I got a RAM Power grip. I got it from summit for $239. It came with throw out bearing and a clutch alig. tool. Grips a lot more than stock.
