Default Clutch Question

I recently have been having trouble getting my car (2000 model) to go into reverse. With the clutch to the floor there is still alot of resistance. Within the past couple of days it has been much harder shifting also (esp. 1st gear). I have a feeling the springs are coming out of the clutch disk or the clutch is coming out altogether. What do ya'll think? Also, if I am going to replace it I'm looking at the exedy oem replacement clutch. I can get it for around $375 shipped on ebay. Do ya'll know of any better deals? My clutch also has the all so terrible "clutch buzz." Will this be eliminated? Thanks in advance.

Try Brake Options in the marketplace forum, I got a better deal than that on my Exedy OEM replacement kit.

You might want to flush the clutch hydraulic fluid first.

You will need more than just the clutch friction disk...you'll also need the pressure plate and you should replace the throw out bearing. Check Hardtopguy.com for a complete oem kit for a good price.

And yes...once you replace the clutch the buzz will be gone.
