Default put in rps setup and wow... need help on adjusting clutch pedal??

hey guys i recently put in the rps max pressureplate and sport disk in my sc300 and wow the pedal is super stiff compared to stock.... ( i mean i knew it would be stiffer but damn its stiff)... thats not my problem..... the clutch engages fine.... but it does so an inch off the floor.... i mean you have to hit the floor to shift hears or theres no shifting.... how do i adjust this? or is my slave or clutch master cylinder going bad? any help would be great.... thanks

Did you bleed the clutch? If no, bleed the clutch and use synthetic fluid for the clutch reservoir while you're at it.

If I remember correctly you need a 12mm, a 10mm, and a gymnast.

It's easy just crawl up under there upside down and undo the lock nut and twist the actuator shaft with your fingers. When you like where it's at, tighten the lock nut.

As an aside (), if you get tired of that stiff RPS and people start talking about your oversized left calf, I got a nice Clutchmasters Kevlar clutch for sale in the classifieds with almost stock pedal effort that will hold the power.

Couldn't resist the shameful plug.
