Default Clutch problems but new clutch?

Hey guys. I have a 1996 gsr integra and it's been having this problem where after a good 20 min drive the clutch would not grab as hard when shifting. But it would grab fine before 20 mins.

And I recently just did these to my car.
New stage 1.5 competition clutch
New lightened flywheel 14lbs
Clutch master slave cylinder
Short shifter
Shifter bushings

Again the car grabs fine and chirps when I start it up. It's actually real grabby because of the new clutch. But after a seven mile drive home from work the pedal starts to have a really high engagement. And it won't grab as hard. I'm pulling in 1st gear to about 7k and slamming it into 2nd and all it would do is grab but it won't really really grab and "chirp".

Pulls fine no slipping. But I can't chirp it when it's warmed up.

I though doing a new clutch and flywheel and a pedal height adjustment would do it but no

Anything will help. Thanks

I'm still doing it now. I'm just saying it's having the same problem before I put all that stuff in. I did a clutch bleed. It make the clutch feel a lot better but after a morning start and a 20 min ride it went back to being the same way before I did the bleed...
