240keyy and I have been working on my flywheel and clutch since 11 p.m. yesterday. We take off the transmission, take off old clutch and flywheel and then put on the new stuff. We also replace the slave cylinder and on our way to finishing the job (note: we have done clutches million of times). So we put everything back on and then proceed to bleed the clutch fluid. We keep on doing a series of opening and closing the valve, going up and down on the clutch pedal, and refilling the clutch fluid. But still there is no response on the pedal after I push down on it, it just stays down until either I pull up on the pedal or 240keyy moves the slave cylinder lever manually. So then we thought that we messed up in the installation and take off the transmission again and inspect our work and everything is totally fine. We don't know what the hell to do now and am wondering if anybody can help us with this problem? Of ya, by the way the stuff we installed were:

Spec stage 3 clutch (6 puck)
Fidanza Lighten flywheel
OEM slave cylinder
