Garmin Catalyst mounting solution round 2. First attempt did not held up over time, the Catalyst was just too heavy for it. The tape would come loose.

how hard is this clutch adjustment? I really don't like how high the clutch engages on my car, i find myself hitting the gas too early in upshifts, and missing the timing on heel/toe on a frequent basis.

The adjustment isn't hard, is the getting into/out of the foot well.

I don't think it changes the engagement point relative to the floor. Moving the pedal downward just puts the pedal closer to the engagement point.

The adjustment moves the entire pedal travel closer to the floor, hence the bite point as well. This is due to the adjustment being on the master cylinder rod and not on the pedal.

The only thing you have to worry about if you adjust the pedal travel downward is if you go too low there's a chance the pedal could be hitting the floor but not disengaging the clutch 100%, which would cause premature wear.

Where did you pick up the studs from? Did you do extended studs and open lug nuts? If you did new nuts, which did you go with?

i bought the studs from www.allensfasteners.com but they are out of stock now.
went with Muteki open lug nuts since they do not require a special tool.

Added some bling to the interior from StickerFab. Water with a tiny bit of soap (to allow positioning of the sticker) + hair dryer (to form fit into shape) for install.
