Default 95eg/B16A3 - hard to shift in all gears

Just recently while driving when going to shift into *any gear, very difficult to get into gear(does not grind). Doesnt matter what speed(mph)/or what gear. When the clutch pedal is pushed in feels like clutch does not disengage to shift gears, eventually it will go into gear (clutch going out?)

Checked
-clutch master cyl/slave cyl/line for leaks -good
-trans has full fluid-good
-checked shifter bushings/bolts/brackets etc.-good
-clutch is not slipping
-throw out bearing is not making any noise
-clutch/flywheel/master cyl/slave cyl = stock

-have not checked clutch/pressure plate yet

Check master and slave cylinder. I know you said you checked those but you didn't say how you checked them. It's what happened to me a few weeks ago.

The master cyl reservoir is full. Had a friend push the clutch pedal to see if the slave cyl is actually moving- good. Ill bleed it when I get home see if that makes any diff there may be air in the lines

Slave cylinder went bad. But mine just started leaking like a sieve. Same symptoms though so maybe you have air in the system.
