Default RE: clutch question

Since you have a stock, non-adjusted clutch assembly, probably the easiest way of telling you need a new clutch is if the clutch doesnt start engaging until the very top of the pedal movement. Right now your clutch should engage/disengage towards the middle to bottom of the pedal. If it starts engaging/disengaging at towards the top, its a sign that you need a new clutch. Also, when you running your car hard and shift at higher RPMs, if you feel the clutch "slip" it means you need a new one. You'll feel the clutch not grab all the way or grab right away when you press it under high RPMs aka greater pressure for the clutch to work in. Hope this helps
