i'm having an issue with my tranny, maybe you know
sometimes like when downshifting or coming to a stop while in gear* clutch depressed*
i have a really hard time once stopped pulling the stick out of gear into neutral and vice versa going in too... also if it doesnt release even with the clutch depressed the car rolls slowly. slowly pulling forward until the stick is pulled outta gear * making a clunk noise when i does release...

i have a drift event coming up and i'm playing it easy til then...

This is a dead giveaway for a clutch release problem. Bleed the hydraulics. Then make sure your clutch slave is working. If the slave cylinder is working, you might have a bent clutch fork.

how important is it too fix RIGHT NOW?

If you haven't already figured out how to shift without a clutch, I'd say it's pretty important.

does your clutch feel really soft?... the only reason it would be hard to pull the tranny out of gear or put it in gear is because the clutch is not doing its job buy disenguaging

sooo bad on your trans though shifting with out using the pedal...rev matching is cool and all but it WILL chew your car up fast...
i just thought it weird that it was still gripping a lil with my pedal pressed ...

do you have your dampening box installed? if so this could be the problem.
