    Problem with clutch.

    Today my friend mentioned that my clutch engages very high up, almost near the very top. I don't know if this is normal because I have a new exedy stage 1 clutch, a 8lb flywheel and the f20a engine. I remember bleeding the clutch twice after the install and my cylinders arent leaking. What can be the cause of this, should I bleed it again?

    adjust the clutch pedal.. mike has a how-to on this somewhere.. look for it.. its a matter of adjusting a rod under the clutch pedal that adjusts the engagement.. pretty simple.. ill let cpmike chime in

      its a 12mm lock nut on it.....when your under the dash, if ur rotate it counter clock wise while ur upside down, it will lower the engagement point....so spin it to ur left while ur upside down, and u should have about an inch of play in the pedal....good luck.

          where u see the master cylinder "clevis" rod enter the fire wall...its at the end of it. by the bracket for the clutch pedal...use a flash light.. its kind of hard to see, you going to need an open end 12mm.

            in lamen terms.. look for a small diamter shiny rod that goes into the engine bay from under the clutch pedal.. it should have a 12mm nut on it.. i forgot which side.. either right behind the clutch pedal or right infront of the firewall..
