Default Pypes

I can't imagine that the exhaust work and intake had anything to do with the shifter...

Unless you bumped the shifter when doing the exhaust.

The shifter has a long shaft that works the gears, and it runs parallel to the exhaust pipes. I suppose its possible you hit or bent it when working on the exhaust...

If everything now is back to normal, thank your lucky stars and consider youself lucky.

I'd swap out that shifter for a short-throw if it was mine - I hate the rubbery stock shifters.

could my clutch be fried somehow, or could it be something hydraulic?

Default Clutch

You have a hydraulic clutch in that car...

Who did your exhaust work?

Right now I think that its possible that whoever worked on your exhaust messed up your hydraulic clutch circuit and/or ran the exhaust up too close to the hydraulic clutch (probably the slave cylinder, the line, or the master cylinder).

Check to see if the master cylinder has any juice left in it. If its dry, then check the line to the slave cylinder, etc.

Without any hydraulic fluid, no clutch.

I doubt that you toasted your clutch (unless you got really stupid/crazy with the car) so quickly.

Too many coincidences here.
