Default Xtreme performance clutch kit problems

Hi guys. This is my first post so bear with me. So.... last week I replaced my clutch and flywheel for a Xtreme kit which comes with a singlemass lightened flywheel. After replacing it, couldn't get a pedal and the car would not go into any gears. The pedal just sank to the floor. So I replaced the slave cylinder and still had the same problem. Then replaced the Master Cylinder and now the car finally has a good pedal. However I still cannot get it into gear. With the clutch down and the selector moved to the first gear slot without going fully in, the clutch immediately drags and spins the wheels up. Iv bled the clutch with a vacuum bleeder, pressure bleeder and the conventional manual way but still having the same problem. Through fear that id fitted the friction plate on wrong I removed the box and checked it all, but all looks fine. So put it all back together again in the hope of some miracle that it sorted itself but still nothing. With the engine off the car selects gears fine, so as far as Im concerned that should rule out the gearbox as was also fine before the new clutch too. The change point is the new clutch. Im now down to thinking it may be the wrong one, but having triple checked it with the supplier (350z and 370z specialist) I was fairly confident that they have supplied the correct one. Iv now had enough with the bloody thing. Luckily the gearboxes on these are extremely easy to remove and re-install but still, its uneccessary. I will more than likely take the new clutch kit etc out and just refit the old gear again until I have answers. But is there anything I should check or do first. Iv bled the clutch system for a long time and had no air come out. Its probably had a litre replaced with no traces of air. Is it possible that there is still a smidge of air in there but still giving me a good pedal?
Many thanks in advance, car is currently in the workshop with my head banging against it lol
