Default clutch grabs really high (at the top)????

hey have an 01 built gsr, since the day i bought the car the clutch grabbed really high so i thought maybe the clutch was gone. so i swapped it with an exedy stage 1, and still the same problem, then i built the motor and currently has a competition stage 2 clutch and the same damn problem, clutch has been properly blead many times and at first it grabs lower but ill take it for a spin come back after about 5 min and its high again. my next step might be to replace the clutch master cylinder maybe thats the problem? clutch fluid is also clean and never low im really confused and any help would be great thanks

Disengagement height probably needs to be set. There's a lock-nut where the pushrod for the master cylinder connects to the master cylinder, turning the pushrod lets you set the free play and the disengagement height, the procedure is in the FSM and IIRC the Chilton and Haynes manuals as well. Note that you can't just set it where you want it to engage, follow the procedure and wherever the engagement point ends up is where it's supposed to be.
