Default clutch clicks and wont goin gear

I have a 94 sl1 that when i press down on the clutch i hear a fast clicking noise and wont go in gear. I pretty much have to pump the clutch many times and basically force it into gear. I have replaced the CMC because i have very little pedal pressure if any. Do i need to get the master and slave cylinder assembly that is prebleed?

I presume CMC = Clutch Master Cylinder.
The slave cylinder could be the problem.
Don't know the bleeding procedure, I'd have to read the service literature on replacing one or the other or both. Most systems I have seen there was a bleeding procedure. If there was not one, than it was no worry.
Did this start with a leaking master or slave cylinder?
If so where was the leak?
It usually indicates where the problem is.
If most of the above = no
than it sounds like either the Clutch master Cylinder you installed was defective
or
the slave cylinder system itself is the problem.

There was not any leaks. I was having very low clutch pressure and it was not wanting to go in gear very well at all. I was informed it more than likely was the clutch master cylinder. That is now installed and it did not get better. After a week it is now not wanting to go in any gear at all. I thought it was the clutch but am told again that it is possibly the slave cylinder. What would be my best bet to try now?
