at the same time, ive had the slaves fill up the weather protection boot with fluid, and not leak. visually i couldnt tell anything was wrong, but had no pedal and still had enough fluid in the res. this happened on my 93 nissan altima.

The fluid level may also appear fine if you check it while the master cylinder is still pressed in. Prop the clutch pedal up and then check the fluid level. While you're on the floor check if the floor or the firewall (coming down from the cylinder) feel wet or oily.

Thanks so much guys well it ended it up being a faulty slave cylinder I believe but the master was already old too so I replaced both now its good to go......... on a side note I have a question. Will my supra be able to pass smog with custom three inch exhaust if I put the cats back on?

The diameter of pipe doesn't affect the volume of air moving through the pipe at any given RPM (just pressure and velocity) and has nothing to do with the contents of the exhaust.

How about we just say that 'You shouldn't fail because of your cats, at least'?

Short answer - Yes.

Longer - Assuming there are no other mods that may affect fuel mix and emissions.
