6 Speed Transmission Stuck in Neutral, Unable to Select Gears.

if you loosened the pressure plate, there may not be enough friction to spin the disc and thus the coupler.
if you lift the rear and chock one tire (with an open diff), the shaft should spin as you rotate the other tire with the trans in gear. 4th is close to 1:1

I managed to get the shaft to turn my simply pressing on the clutch pedal while turning the crank. Now i am stuck on the clutch fork pin. I cannot get it out. I tried everything and about 4 hours later it's not moving. Any ideas?

I still can't get the clutch fork shaft out. I would really hate to hack the bell housing but I may have to since I have a spare. I think i will try bolting on a pry bar and wedging in the scissors tool of my porto power to see if that works. I have tried everything and running out of ideas. The damn think just won't move...May be forced to hack it...

I got the clutch fork shaft out by bolting a pry bar onto it and using my Porto Power Scissors Tool. Got the clutch and pressure plate out. The center of the clutch disc is completely broken out and separated from the disc. I have never seen this before. I wonder what could possibly cause it? The clutch disc lining is in good condition which explains no slipping.

Interesting and well done for getting there in the end. What make of clutch plate is it? Wondering if it's just unfortunate that you have a non-OEM or lower quality part installed. Any previous receipts for the installation of this? Best pay the higher price for Porsche only replacement. Keep us posted with updates or any further findings.

I have seen torn hubs in instances where a lightweight flywheel was used. Is your flywheel stock? This can also happen on a stock setup as I am aware of one other incident like this.

if you have the 964 pressure plate then you need to buy a firewall brace before the firewall breaks. Installing a brace is much easier than repairing the firewall.
