Where's Your Engagement Point?

Be patient with it. If you have sport package, use SRM to figure out what RPMs the Z likes to be at in different gears at different speeds. Then practice, practice, practice. Consider RJM clutch pedal assembly.

There is no need to press the clutch pedal all the way to the floor. This actually puts more stress on the fragile CSC, which is already prone to failure. If you're engaging the clutch and not grinding, then you're probably doing ok

Thank god I got the 4 year warranty with my Z. I do plan on getting the RJM clutch soon though. Just waiting for the weather to warm up. I'm definitely not grinding gears, was just slightly concerned on only pushing it in 2 inches to engage the car. Sadly no sport package, so I'll just have to listen to how she wants to react and feel every little movement until I get down RPM patterns. Nothing complicated. This just turned into a game of where the hell the clutch is

How do you figure that? If the clutch isn't fully disengaged then the clutch will wear out faster too. So is there a fine line? I have had three stick cars and one is still kicking at 190k miles with the OEM 2001 clutch. Also my Z has 31K on it and that is all I am going to say about that.


Mine engages about 60% up and I hate the 1-2 shift. One of the biggest things I hate about our cars.

I'm not sure about 2" like the OP mentioned, but I can tell you that you do not have to jam the clutch pedal into the floor to fully disengage the clutch. If you pay attention, you should be able to feel when the clutch disengages. Jamming the clutch pedal to the floor puts more stress on the CSC.
