the stock quadrant adjusts automatically by pulling up on the pedal with your foot. If that doesnt do it, get a fire wall adjuster. I dont believe the stock cable is adjustable but someone please correct me if im wrong.

Dosent matter what cable you get. I just put a steeda in mine. I ordered the steeda kit and it was pretty good. Im having the same problem actually im about to work on it as i type this.

Save some money and go UPR

GOOD LUCK!

i was told by steeda that the reason why with my adjsutable clutch cable and solid quadrant and stuff that it is made to grab up high so you are disengaging the clutch quicker and your not tearing the shifter out of gear while its still engaged while racing or even just accelerating. its just how they are made.
