ok so i just bought another talon just put a motor and tranny in it and everything is perfect it runs great! the only thing keeping it off the road is i cant get any pressure at all in the clutch and i cannot figure it out... when i got the car it had no master cylinder or slave cylinder... so ovbiously i put those in but what i did was take them off my other talon which ran perfectly fine and everything was good so i know that niether of them are bad... ive bleed the clutch probably 50 times and all thats happened is it got a little pressure but its right at the bottom... when the car on it wont even go into gear with the lil pressure it has... im struck ive tryed everything... so any imput would be nice on this i just need to drive it its killing me not to so any help will be greatly appreciated... thanks guys and if ya have any questions just ask and ill answer as soon as i get it...
 
Did you check for leaks after the install? Are you losing fluid? How exactly did you bleed it? Did you check and make sure the clutch fork isn't bent/broken and is properly pushing back on the slave cylinder/push rod?

Apparently you're mistaken. Splurge the hundred bucks and get both new.
When you swap out used hydraulics, you also inescapably change where in the cylinders those old pistons and seals are running. It's impossible not to. They don't like to change homes. You can be certain that your master cylinder is leaking internally, if not just straight out the back into the dust seal.
Replace them. Get a braided line from RRE while you're at it.

Oh, and it's iNput.
