Help...clutch?

Hey guys. Well I went to go to work this morning and my normally super stiff clutch pedal had basically no resistance, and I couldnt get it in gear. I can get it in gear when the engine isnt running but thats it. I just recently bought the car and the owner before me had a stage 3 clutch installed. Any ideas?

If the fluid level is OK, it sounds like either the master or slave cylinders have bought the farm.

Rebuild kits for both are dirt cheap and easy to do.
