Clutch disengagement issue need help!
So I went to drive my 350z after winter was over and parked it for a week while I did a wrap job, once it was done I wasn’t able to shift into any gear I’ve gotten a new clutch and new slave cylinder and still having the same issue can someone give me a hand on what it could be?
clutch was installed properly, car is a 2006, old clutch pressure plate had broken fingers checked the pedal adjustment and it’s good I’m clueless on what it can be

What replacement clutch did you use?
Have you verified the master cylinder is functioning correctly?
If you still have the OEM spider's nest clutch hard lines, it is extremely easy for air to still be trapped in the system even though you're getting bubble-free fluid out during the bleeding process.

master seems to be working just fine
i I do still have the oem lines can continue bleeding and see if anything will loosen up
This happened to me when my clutch release fork pivot ball snapped. Happened shortly after a clutch swap; it's like an $8 dealer part and I would always recommend to change it with the clutch swap
Ok Update
new master cylinder installed and bled properly
new slave cylinder was installed and bled properly
new clutch was installed
still having the same issue the disc is not backwards I opened the clutch fork boot hole and was checking to see if the pressure plate would move when I had someone else push the clutch , the pressure plate fingers move as they should I’m very confused and lost on what my issue is here. Flywheel? Pilot bearing? Geometry off? I’m lost.
