Default Clutch Cable Adjuster ??

Yesterday i put a SPEC stage 1 clutch in my 02 GT. I barely have to push in the clutch pedal for it to shift, and when i am driving i have to let the pedal almost completey out before it grabs. Is this normal? Is there anyway to adjust it?

The clutch is a little stiffer than stock but still everyday functional. It grabs a lot harder. I am really liking it so far. I will check into the steeda adjuster.

oh ok...my clutch is in really bad condition so i dont remember what the stock clutch feels like. do you consider it to be overall a pretty stiff clutch or do u consider it relatively light?

This is the first aftermarket clutch i have had so i really cant compare it to another. It isnt light but i am pretty sure there are heavier ones. Can anyone help answer this question??

if your calbe and quadrangt is siock then you can not adjust it. you will need an adjustable set up and as for the clutch the stock feels light and and a little soft. the stage 1 is nice and firm buty if firm is what you are wanting the yes there are more out there. i run a stage 3 from spec and it is pretty damn firm. it is a daily driver and it is forgiving enough to do that and strong enough to race. i driven a centerforce 2 and it was the worst thing ive ever experienced. when you run stiffer clutches the cable and quadrant is a must
