Unlike some folks who have done this mod, I found that the hardest part was actually removing the pin at the top of the spring, holding it to the pedal assembly. I couldn't get the pin to budge with the clutch fully engaged (which is sort of expected), but there wasn't much room to pull it out with the clutch pedal fully pushed in.

In any case, once the pin came out, the spring assembly was easy to push out.

And yes, what a difference. The first time I drove a BRZ, I almost ruled it out on the basis of the clutch feel, and it's easily been the most irritating part of the car since I've had it (with ~22,000 miles on it now), but it totally transforms the feel of it. I don't really notice it being much stiffer, it just feels far more natural in its engagement.
