2005burgundy

Hay fellas !!!
I just picked up a nice 2005 tC with a manual transmission. I got the car for a great price even though it needed a clutch.
I recently got a replacement clutch and installed it myself, and now the car will not go into any gear unless the engine is turned off.
I bought the clutch kit off of eBay I got a new pressure plate, clutch disc, flywheel and throw out bearing.

Is it possible that the disc is installed backwards?
I put the beefier side of the disc facing the pressure plate.

I try to search numerous times 4 pictures of how to install the disc but I just can't find any.

Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated I can't wait to get this car on the road!!!

It sounds like the clutch is not disengaging. Check both the clutch master and slave cylinders. That may be where your problem lies.

I also replaced the slave cylinder the 2nd time i took the transmission out just to verify everything was properly installed, and everything was. That's when I noticed the slave was bad. So I installed a new slave cylinder, the old one had fluid inside the rubber boot. I was planning on removing the tranny for a third time and replacing the new pressure plate thinking it was defective but I might just go ahead and replace the master cylinder and see if that fixed the problem as opposed to removing the transmission for a third time.
