How long have you had the car? How many miles are on it? Are you slipping under load? Do you smell something when you shift gears?

My clutch gave out on me after just 35,000 miles... Not that I was raging on my car, I think my issue was tied in someway to the throwout bearing.

It seems strange that you wouldn't be able to shift for that amount of time. It sounds like it could be the pressure plate. http://auto.howstuffworks.com/clutch1.htm or maybe a throwout bearing? You're going to have to get it checked out by a professional. AS for clutches I can verify that the mirage clutches work for this car as I have one now and have been running it for the past few years.
