Default clutch pedal slightly sticking when pressed?

Ok guys... for a day or so, i'm noticing that the pedal is slightly sticking when pressed. Now i cant tell if it has something to do with the Master cylinder, or Slave cylinder.

But i DO have an ACT clutch set that is gonna be installed when i have the time. I dont konw if this helps but when i red line the car...the car just slips like crazy but not when i drive normal. I already did the Clutch Delay Valve removal mod and it was chirping but now the damage has already been done. so hence the new act clutch that is gonna go in.

But do you guys think its the clutch? or on of the other two? its kinda like a sticky, sand....felling right when its been pressed all the way.

Bleed your clutch fluid. Most likely, theres air trapped in the lines.

Clutch fork pivot point.
Clutch fork.
Slave's ball-end piston.

Maybe throwout guide.

Run an improved search for "sticky clutch" by dbzerk and you will find posts with pictures.

nothing came up with Sticky clutch under DBZERK. I'm not too familiar with where to look it up or even how.

The question i'm having now is........will it hurt anything?

Thanks SOO MUCH for your help!
You're welcome.
But you should thank dbzerk for making both posts.
Maybe one day they (the posts) will make it to the FAQ

your right! luckily i have a buddy that works at honda as a mech-a-nik and said he'll do the clutch swap for 300 bucks. I'm too chicken to try it on my car even though i done it a few times on an awd eclipse... hm... well still....he's got all the parts there to change if needed hahaha...
