Feels like I own a Superchargerd Flintstone car!!

Recently my 07 ss/sc car stopped going into the gears. I got worried and thought it could've bin gear oil so I bought 2 quarts of 75W-90. It started goin onto the gears but it was pretty hard and sluggish and when I tried to get it into reverse I heard a loud bangin sound. I got angry and jus sank the clutch pedal down as hard as possible and then I was able to get into all of the gears very easily. So basically what I'm sayin is that I have to push my foot down as hard as possible onto the clutch in order to get it to shift properly. I owned my car for about 2 years and this started last week sunday. Anybody have an idea what could be causing this problem?

Clutch feels great like when I first got it installed... Its one of those gm upgraded clutches from crateenginedepot.com and I got it installed like 4 months ago. If I have my foot hard on the pedal then it shifts properly... If I move my foot off jus a quarter of an inch it doesnt allow me to shift into any gear and thats weird cause I never once had to force my pedal to the medal.. Literally! And I read somewhere on the forum that the clutch pedal cant be adjusted... So I'm kinda lost now and have no idea where to start my troubleshooting from.

2 months past and still haven't found the problem with my car.. I recently changed the slave cylinder and then the clutch master cylinder. Nothing changed and the car remained to do the samething. I'd pump the clutch and then start the car and it goes thru all gears perfect... I'd try that same procedure again and the car refuses to take any gears.. Id have to step on the clutch super hard and then it slips into gear... And I kept doin it and bent the new clutch master and recently had to order a brand new one from crateengine. I also bled clutch numerous times and that didnt help.. Any ideas anyone?
