I have my new clutch sitting in the garage so no worries...I hope. It's been almost 140K since I bought my ZTS so I think I got my money's worth. The reason I'm starting this topic is for a number of reasons...yes, being an IODIOT is one of them. After the whole 30mins of grinding and stalling, it seems my car is bogging at idle and making one heck of a racket while my foot is off the pedal (neutral). Is this "clutch chatter" from the reasons above or is it the actual gear box? Just curious...and please take it easy with the "dumbass" comments, I'm a bleeder.

Hard to say but usually it's the throwout bearing that goes first when you have lots of KM on a clutch. Just book it in and get the clutch replaced before anything else happens. Does your clutch still work is it slipping or are you having trouble getting in or out of gear?
I have a few cars.
One for my dog.
One that has no roof.
One that looks good parked at the golf course.
One that is being rebuilt by a guy named Nero..... will it ever be done?
