Hi. I just replaced my clutch this week. I have an 05 Mazda 3 2.0 I. The clutch/ brake hydraulic system was sealed during the job. I went to test drive and clutch pedal doesn't engage clutch until about an inch or so off the floor. And the brake pedal felt like there was no power brakes. Pedal went halfway down then got hard.
Brake usually starts soft and gets harder nice and easy as it gets pushed further to floor.
