I just changed the clutch and bled the lines (not the best bleeding though)

if i press in the clutch pedal half way i can switch gears, all the way and it doesn't do anything, what might be wrong?

you need to adjust the pedal.

How does the clutch pedal feel? Did you try and bleed the system by yourself or did you have someone pressurize the pedal and then crack the bleeder on the slave cylinder open,Also check the pedal adjustment.I hope this helps some.

I had the same problem.. Keep bleeding!
If you want to make it easy on yourself remove this secondary bleeder box crap, it'll take a fraction of the time. It goes from like 3/8" brake hose to a huge 1/2" loop, no wonder it's such a pain in the ass!!

i had already removed the damper box. i bled the car again and the problem went away
