Hi there.

I recently bought a VR manual and it feels like the pedal is massive when you go to press it, even though the friction point, is right near the end of the clutch. Really, you barely need to press half the clutch pedal to change gears.


I was wondering, is there any way I can adjust things to make the clutch throw shorter and make the pedal closer to the floor pan?


P.S. While I've got a thread going, where abouts should the temperature be sitting on a warm day? On mine, it was sitting on the first full size bar above the cold. Is that right?

Well bugger.

The car might physically be fine, but it just bugs the hell out of me having the clutch grab so high. I'd much rather have the clutch throw halved if I could...
