Have you tried adjusting your clutch? Do you know where the clutch adjustment is? If not, look in your engine bay, to the RIGHT of the battery you will see a black plastic adjustment nut next to the radiator hose (bit fat hose). The nut will be quite a ways down there. Try backing the nut off a ways, pump the clutch pedal, and see how much play there is in the RELEASE ARM (black arm under the adjustment nut.) There should be only 5/32"- 13/64" of freeplay in the release arm. Keep adjusting the nut until you get the desired effect.

 BTW it's not as complicated as this sounds!!

i just went outside to adjust the clutch cable to see if it was that, well with my luck, it wasn’t.i can put the car into gear and let off the clutch and accelerator pedal and it doesnt stall.what does this mean? i dont understand how it can go from slipping just a little to nothing at all.

The Clutch should feel like the gas pedal. It shouldn’t travel to the floor quite easily. You do however have to press the clutch to the floor when starting the car. You have a weird problem there coz’ you put the stick in gear and got no response. You should at least stall and hear a grind.

It sounds like you’ll have to take the tranny apart to take a look.

derek,

where are you getting your clutch installed at? how much?
And about the taillights, i decided to keep them since im planning on selling the car.

BTW- I found an integra graveyard out in opa-loca, lots tails out there in good condition.
