Default clutch pressure problems????

i installed a stage 1 act heavy duty clutch kit, with a act flywheel on my 99 b16. but for some reason when you step on the clutch pedal, the pressure isn't stiff. i tried over and over bleeding the slave cylinder. and is it normal for the bleeding process, for the clutch pedal having no pressure at all?(it fells like no fluid or pressure at all). what could be the problem?

do you have any pedal pressure at all? Does it make the clutch work or not?

the clutch has no pressure when your bleeding the clutch master cylinder. but when you close the slave cylinder after bleeding, the pressure builds up a little bit(feels like a stock pressure type). but my buddy has the same set up, and his has a lot of pressure. the clutch works fine. but when bleeding, the clutch pedal would drop freely with no pressure. is that normal? most other cars that i bleed, it doesn't drop freely.

yes it's normal if you bleed the slave, the pedal will in fact fall to the floor. I would bleed the slave there homie...not the master. Why do you think you should start with master? I would start with slave and bleed from there.
