Default Clutch??

Having issue with clutch pedal or something. Have looked through the forum for answers, with no luck so am here. Some background, 07 wrx (129000 miles), stage 2/2 1/2?, comp clutch stage 2 w/ lightweight flywheel (changed at 105,000 miles), stock trans. Trans fluid changed 10,000 miles ago. Never have I ever dropped the clutch, if anything I have lifted my foot a little too slow, once in a great while. (UPDATE: come to find out my son tried to dump the clutch the day before, but only at about 3500rpm and says it just bogged down and did not even squeal the tires.) So I don't think it only coincidental, has to have something to do with.

So after getting half way thru a 3 hr cruise on the back roads I found myself at an intersection in which I couldn't get the car in gear for nothing. The pedal was sticking about a 1/3 of the way down, but even after pulling up numerous times, couldn't get into gear. you could push the pedal down the 1/3 with no resistance. Clutch fluid was to the top. After turning the car off and letting sit for about 10mins as soon as I started, the pedal was up, so started home. The clutch would not start to disengage until the top 1/3 in each gear. If cruising and I accelerated it would act like I was pushing in the clutch halfway (like an automatic slipping).

Anyone have any ideas what I'm looking at? Any questions? Thanks...

So, the car has 129K miles and the clutch has 105K miles?

Sounds like you may just need a new clutch

I had that problem along time ago on my 98rs I turned out to be the clutch fork had cracked but if you are going to do that you might as well change the clutch too.

Sorry for the confusion. The clutch was replaced at 105,000, so it only has 24,000 on it.
