A couple months back I changed my clutch, flywheel, and pressure plate, made sure I did everything correctly when installing. I adjusted the clutch, bled, and made sure everything was going correctly, but I'm very confused on what's going on now, the car refuses to go into gear and I have no idea why.

I've been trying to fix this for months now and have not solved the problem, I'm thinking about taking it to a shop but before I spend hundreds of dollars for somebody to fix it I want to hear your opinions.

Let me know if there's any other things I have to do, and bear with me this is my first time ever changing a clutch on a car.

Did you actually bleed the clutch hydraulics correctly?

If the answer is "Yes. I had someone pump the pedal, hold it down, then I opened the bleed screw on the slave cylinder and closed it <rinse/repeat>" then you didn't.
