Yes, the clutch is adjustable but it isn't any easy adjustment. The adjustment is made by changing the length of the push rod connected to the clutch pedal, the specifics are in chapter CL of the repair manual. Given that the clutch should have been factory set correctly I would be a little curious why it is so high.

Thanks. The car has just 7 miles on it. As for the service manual, I DL'd a 12MB file 370Z_Service_Manual.7z but my peazip utility claims "archive unreadable- try password?".
Never saw that before. Yes it's difficult but I've done it before on a 350z some years back using the G35 thread at http://www.freshalloy.com/forums/showthread.php?t=73620.

It wasn't a fun project -I was upside down with my head stuck under the dash for a couple hours!

I hope the CL chapter is easier to do, but how to open that .7z archive??
