Default Clutch problem.... sharing the story..recomendation needed

Hi guys how r u all doing i posted this in the FI coz i didn't know where to post it for a good feed back..
ok here it is after i installed the Gready TT and built my engin.. I was doing some on road tuning.. and just after HUSSAM steped out of the car and i was going home my glutch felt as if its empty... so an empty pedal and then in the end u feel that u r pressing the clutch and it got worst as i driven it home untill i totaly had no clutch the gear wont get in at all...parked it next to a friends house and it seams that it cooled down the next morning the car was fine drove it strait to the garage and they bled my cluch as i understood it might have had some air in the (servo) or what we call a clutch box... to cut the story short the car acted fine some days i get a loose clutch just a lil bit and as soon as i drive the clutch feels normal again... Untill yesterday i have no clutch engagment what so ever.and the clutch is fine I'm sure but is it the clutch box I mean the hidrolic or is it the clutch silaniod... if any 1 has faced this pleas help.. I'm intending to work on the car on Sat. thanx for ur time and wish me luck...

Just sounds like not enough fluid or air in the lines. You could also have a leak somewhere.

Either air in the system, or a defective slave or master cylinder. I would start with a re-bleed, and see if that sorts it out for you. Also rub your fingers around the clutch line fittings, and check for leaks. They can be very hard to find....unless you touch them with your fingers.

Thanx sharif here is the status...
a) they looked for a cilender in theh nissan dealer and the bad news is they don't have any in stock so i have to w8 for 2 weeks to get it over from japan..
b) the mechanic realy doubt its a cilender for some reason he is 85% sure its the clutch coz we installed a slitly used 1 so he said he will install the stock 1 on if it ingage fine and feel ok then its the clutch and then i will install a new 1... note he has nothing in this coz if its a bad clutch he is not supplying the new 1 so he is not trying to sell. I will know 2day and see how it will go i need it done by max endof the day 2day I'm doing test and tune on the track 2morrow for an event thats coming soon... thanx for ur help i will keep u posted..
