Default 240sx SR20DET help

I just bought the car on Sunday with the sr20 in it already. car turns on and what not, but doesnt move. Dude i bought it from told me that it was the clutch that was out. Well i figure before i tear it down to ask people if it could possibly be something else. You can shift the car into gear without even pushing down on the clutch pedal, so i figure it just might be the clutch. But he also told me that he just put the clutch in 8 months ago, and he said it was a stage 3 clutch. I have never heard a stage 3 go out in 8 months...... But i am a Civic guy and this is my first 240. So if someone can help me out, or possibly come check it out one day after work i would be very greatful. I live in Newport News as well. And if it is the clutch that is bad what type of clutch should i look for like out of what USDM vehicle.

but that's fwd. this is rwd. If he broke his differential (which I haven't heard of a lot on 240's), then he would still have to use the clutch to put it in gear. and the clutch is specific for your car, rwd sr20. I got mine from www.jgycustoms.com
