Default GSR swap in civic Clutch/fluid/? problems

I've been having trouble getting my car into gear. I can push the clutch pedal in, and it's like it's not in at all. Sometimes i can bleed the clutch and it will be fine for an hour, week, day....whatever....it's very sporadic. But it's getting worse. I thought it was a clutch master cylinder problem since it did the same thing with the old motor. So the cluctch m/c was replaced, and now i'm suspecting the slave cylinder, but that's what was replaced on my old D16z6 with the same problem and it didn't fix it. I really don't know what to do. Any ideas.

p.s. when it's working the clutch grabs awesome, with no slippage.

well, you're telling us that when you bleed it,it works fine for a little while..so obviously is a mc/sc problem. change the slave and go from there

Probably slave cylinder.

See if you can source any leaks.

i just bled the clutch yesterday for like 20 minutes....i bled half of one of those big bottles of brake fluid through it. Still won't go into gear. I talked to a mechanic and he said it might be something lodged in the clutch, like a clutch spring or something like that, that's keeping it from disengaging. Cause sometimes it will work again without me bleeding it.

also my mechanic said that since the pressure on the pedal is good then its not a m/c, s/c problem, but probably inside the trans
