im actually going through this now, you dont want to know what the fix is, if were having the same problem, push your clutch pedal to the floor, let go, now put your foot behind the pedal and see if you can lift it up anymore if you can go here http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=96981

Boostd92, the pedal assembly problem is mostly for 1g's as I believe the 2g set up is a bit different. OP: Does the clutch engage right off the floor when taking off? If so, I would try and adjust the master cylinder rod under the dash, above the pedals. I think that this is what you were told to do. It's a simple process, but space is tight. All you'll need are some pliers/vice grips, and a wrench. Get under there and adjust the rod that is coming from the master cylinder by loosening the nut on the c shaped bracket, and turn the rod so it gives it more throw. I'm not sure if you'll be turning it clockwise or counter clockwise since I have to see it to tell you. I'm pretty sure it's clockwise though which will give you less threads of the rod threaded into the c bracket. After turning it a few turns, tighten the nut back and see if it engages any better.
