Have you replaced any of the clutch hydraulics or opened the system at all (disconnected the clave from the master)? If you are only replacing the clutch disk and pressure plate you would not need to bleed the hydraulics. It would not hurt to do it, especially if you clutch pedal felt soft or spongy before with the old clutch.

So the answer is maybe jk
