sounds like your clutch master cylinder might be gone....

im pretty sure the clutch master cylinder pokes through the firewall and attaches to the clutch pedal mechanism in the foot well... i helped a mate fix his on his prelude and it wasnt too hard a job
its a matter of disconnecting it on both sides of the firewall and replacing it... but clutch fluid will go everywhere so be careful..... and youll need to do a clutch fluid bleed etc afterwards... there might be a tutorial in the workshoop manuals...
you should probably get the problem diagnosed by a professional first ... and if youre not mechanically minded, you might want to get them to fix it too...

the parts can come from a mirage... search the forums cause i know SilentBob went through this not that long ago and has a long thread on it.
