06legsleeper Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 as stated we did my smfw and stage 2 clutch swap today.. took about 7 hrs from start to finish. trans unmated from the motor in about 20 min (55k miles and never seen a harsh winter ) i was lucky there ... clutch grabs fine , rolls smooth..... but my pedal grabs about half way from the floor which im fine with , just seems like there s no resistance when pushing the clutch in , .... do i need to adjust the pedal from under the dash or .... maybe cause its new and im use to a duel mass? or im thinking that my TOB was shitty and thats y . we used the moly grease on the shaft where the tob goes on to . maybe its just sliding better ... any input would be greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 You did put a new TOB in, right ? Some stage 2 or higher clutches will change as they break in. My Spec 2 has been like stock since the first push on the clutch pedal. My old Spec 2+ was different for the first 1000 miles or so. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

06legsleeper Posted May 18, 2013 Author Share Posted May 18, 2013 yeah TOB is in right and locked in place thinkin maybe cause we cleaned and greased the output shaft where the TOB goes so its riding real smooth .. unlike the old tob which was dried up and all... gunna bleed the clutch master today and adjust pedal travel.. yeah brand new everything from the fw back , fw , pp, tob, pivot bearing , bolts. cleaned everything , and lightly greased both bearing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You shouldn't need to do that. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.
