Just popped it in and went for a spin. I personally like no spring better, just the right amount of stiff. Even the mtec spring takes some of that away.
The only positive is that the mtec takes care of the floppy pedal feel when disengaged. I'm kinda torn...might take it out... Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk |

Where did you buy the spring at? How much was it? Still not happy even with pedal adjustment and slave swap. Wife says the shifting is much smoother, but it still doesn't feel like the manuals I'm used to. |

Straight from mtec, Mtecind.com. I grabbed both the shifter and clutch spring for about $68 shipped. They're $30 a piece.

It's never going to be quite there. Engagement point is still really high. A few of us locally briefly discussed experimenting with slotting the reservoir port and adding a pedal return spring to give it more of a classic feel. That's a lot of work, though.

I felt a stock clutch pedal for the first time after doing all 3 pedal modifications. I had totally forgot what it felt like...maybe because it has no feel!!

I understand if you've never worked on a car before, but it's seriously easier than changing oil. Cleaner, faster, cheaper, and no jacking up the car!
Hell, I'll drive to anyone in MD and do it for em for a beer, haha. Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk |

I've done it for a bunch of the guys up here. It's a little awkward working around a sprintex/innovate blower but still not rocket science.

I hope I don't sound like I'm harping. It's important to understand the distinction. The clutch engagement point will change as a result of this mod. I strongly recommend dialing it in and/or verifying clutch function after the swap. Make sure the clutch both fully disengages, and is able to self-adjust when released.

Edit: It's late. It just re-read your comment and it answered my question. Edit 2: Do you need to dial-in/verify the clutch after the slave swap or the assist spring? |
