Exclamation Bled the clutch and still hard to shift at high rpm's?

I bled my clutch with a friend, did it 6 times...Then I went for a test drive(more clutch pressure and shifted great) and then shifted at high rpm's and then it was still very hard to select a gear (required a lot of effort to get it into gear). Can anyone help me out on what is going on here? thanks

I' ve had the same problem for 2 years!!, I'm racing next weekend and I'm very desparate. I've bled my hydraulics 50 times. I'm thinking my master is bad, I got a new 01-02 slave ...HELP US!!! I cant put it in gear until the pedal is to the floor. and I hear a leaking air noise from the master when I push it in. HELP I don't know if its the cause of it.

Master's are probably fine, but I HIGHLY suggest the adjustable master cylinder mod! Worked wonders on my car.

you need the drill mod. I had the problem, did the drill mod and it took care of it. Take the whole master out to do it, then wrap the master lines with some thermal wrap.

Drill mod, I'm doing it to my car tomorrow because I'm having th exact same problem. It's frustrating, but this should be the remedy.
