Hey guys, having a few issues with the clutch, it's not engaging at all. I've bled the system twice now, each time before starting the car up, with clutch in I'm able to easily shift through the gears without any sticking. As soon as i run the car it won't go into anything, it's like the clutch needs to go another couple centimeters for it to disengage. Its on an R154 transmission, with an OS Giken Triple Clutch, OS Push Pull Converter, -3 braided lines, New OeM master and slave. Any thoughts?

Well since you have a s13. Did you remove the damper box underneath the car??

My humble suggestion is to check the clutch pedal adjustment.

The shaft of the master cyl is threaded, you adjust the pedal engagement height by loosening the 12mm lock nut, then by rotating the shaft clockwise (to push the slave cyl more) or counter-clockwise (to push the slave cyl less).

Try small changes first - I suggest 1/4 turn and then test.
