Slipping Clutch? Or other issues.

For some weird reason.

When I get on the car, the pedal gets real soft like almost 1 inch to the floor.

Like shifting low RPMs the car is fine you can feel it engage. 1st feels mint, 2nd feels as if i have to force it into gear. However there is no grinds, 3,4,5, &6 are all fine. But when i get on it. The car simply wont go into gear, it feels that the pedal is so low to the floor and that its not holding pressure and when i try to slam a gear it basically just wont go into gear and i just REV super high. Then i let off and lose the race.

Im guessing that either

1. My clutch is slipping, my throwout is making some sounds.
2. My clutch slave cylinder cant handle the power?

I thought it can be the cables but for 400 bucks from HR cables, i doubt ill go that route and just get OEM stock RSX cables.

I looked up prices for a clutch and i think ill got with a CC-4 with stock RSX Type S flywheel. Hopefully itll handle it.

The clutch slave cylinder did have a leak, and for some weird reason you can physically see the leak anymore since i thought i repaired it. But the liquid seem to go low after a week of driving.
