x = game.workspace.Part
function onClicked(z)
    x.Transparency = 1
    x.CanCollide = false
    x.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really green")
    wait (5)
    x.Transparency = 0
    x.CanCollide = true
    x.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")

end
game.Workspace.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(onClicked)

I added a clickdetector into the part as well but when I click it the Part doesnt change at all

You connected the function it to the ClickDetector in the workspace rather than the one in the part. IDidMakeThat 1135 — 8y

The problem is that the ClickDetector you are connecting the function to is not in the part. You need to put it in the part, then change the script accordingly:

local part = script.Parent -- This assumes the script is inside the part.
function onClicked()
    part.Transparency = 1
    part.CanCollide = false
    part.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really green")
    wait (5)
    part.Transparency = 0
    part.CanCollide = true
    part.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
end
part.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(onClicked)

Also, I would recommend using more descriptive variable names. It will make the script easier to understand.
