Comp. clutch stage 3 question
Hey,
Just joined the forum so little introduciton, just boosted my '91 NA with your "standard" td04, rx8 injectors etc. setup.
Build is completed and I did a test drive, nothing leaked so that's good but I noticed 2 strange things with the clutch.
1. The clutch grabs right at the bottom of the pedal, when I lift my foot up the slightest it grabs and rolls.. With my OEM clutch it was around half way where it's supposed to be.
2. Shifting is really hard/stiff, before it was butter smooth and went in all gears no problem, now I really have to force it in there, like really force it.. I filled up the separate part where the shifter goes with oil too.
Btw, using a 1.8 flywheels since my 1.6 won't work.
Any of you know how I can fix this? I might've missed something you guys probably know. According to the description it should be close to OEM.. This doesn't feel even close.
Thinks that's about it.. If you have any questions, let me know!

It is not the fluid. It is your clutch Rod adjustment as was indicated. You introduced a new part and must adjust everything to work correctly just like we all have to do every single time. Don't make this more complicated than it has to be.
