clutch

so i gots a problem... have an 86 rx7 n/a 5speed. and when ever i depress the clutch pedal it stays at the floor... i got out and checked the arm and there is a lot of play between the slave and the release fork itself..

now my question is is there a way to replace the fork or take it out and re-install it with out taking out the tranny?

also my shifter needs new bushings.. any recommendation on were to get them.

Same problem on both cars. Your clutch hydraulics are shot. You need to replace the master and slave clutch cylinders. East to do and you can get the parts at your local auto parts store.

For the shifter bushings, try mazdatrix or Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda.
