Description of the problem	I was driving my 2004 mazda rx8 to work, everything was fine until suddenly my clutch pedal made a snap noise as i pressed to get it out of gear. The clutch pedal went loose inback of the brake pedal. Luckily i was able to free the clutch pedal back up, but i wasn't able to put it into any gear. I pulled off the road and visually inspected the clutch pedal. Soon after i had my car towed. I found out it was a faulty clutch pedal bracket. It is made of weak metal and has single spot welds holding it together. I am having the clutch bracket taken out, re-welded to make it much stronger then originally, then replaced in the car. I came across an aftermarket replacement part online, but it is out of my budget.
