wait.....what?

you want to know how to adjust the clutch pedal?

HYPNOTIK · 08-18-2009, 03:25 PM

Adjust the rod that attaches the clutch pedal to the master cylinder. Loosen the nut, turn the rod, tighten the nut, done.

don't get too hasty and adjust the rod like a mad man. adjust it by a little bit at a time, drive around for a bit, adjust it again.

if the rod is hard to turn, turn the nut all the way down, and use the 10mm wrench on the nut to turn the rod.

You should just get used to it. I had a Honda and HATED the late engagement.

lol that's a good way to get pinked.

Congratulations, you're a dumbass.

As was said before, adjust the rod with a 10mm wrench until you achieve the proper engagement, but I don't see why you would. Stock engagement is soo nice..

Since you're new I'll let it go.

For future reference, there are maybe a dozen people who consistently help on various topics. We type the same thing the same thing over and over and over again.

If you're here long enough you'll know what I mean.

g6civcx · 08-19-2009, 07:50 AM

Out of the kindness of my heart. These are just my own. There are many others from different people.

THANK FOR SO MUCH useful infos....i dont mind you guys being mean to me..is ok with me...i dont mind....yea i admit..this site is really helpful..i will do that ..please someone close the thread before more flame....

BY the way...i just get so used to the late engagement ...and i either stall or jerk alot at redlight...and make me gringe when i think stalling the car alot will hurt the motor, and turbo..

g-via · 08-19-2009, 10:59 AM

no offense, but if you can't adapt to a car withing a few shifts...you're not much of a driver.

I've driven mazda trucks, SiR's, Evo's....etc....once you feel where the engagement point is, you pretty much know where it is.
