The clutch is gone for sure and there is nothing you can do about it.<p>Your best bet is to get an ACT clutch if you're going to drive your car hard.<p>You're looking upwards around $900can to buy it and get a shop to put it in. Don't forget to get the flywheel resurfaced, otherwise you'll need another new clutch in no time.

Screw the ACT, get an OEM one dude. The clutch itself will cost about 120 bucks and the installation, i have no idea. Ive never had to have one installed, i do it myself all of the time. About the flywheel, its not a necessity to have it resurfaced, only if it is in bad shape. Ive never had any flywheel resurfaced and the clutches are still going strong.

In reference to getting the flywheel resurfaced:<p>if there are nicks and scratches on the flywheel, they can cause premature wear on the clutch,<p>i had mine done and it comes back like a mirror, so spend the extra money and have it done.
