Default car doesnt stall when clutch isnt engaged and doesnt move at all.

I have a 88 z24, starts right up, but won't move in any gear. You can push the shifter through gears without any grinding and without the clutch pushed in. Also you can have it in any gear and let go of the clutch and it doesn't stall, anyone know what it could be?

I'd pull the bellhousing inspection plate, sounds like a pressure plate issue.

or maybe a shift linkage problem?....does shifter movement feel light?
