Clutch pedal too soft/no feel? Remove the helper spring!

I never bothered to reinstall the c-clip, so what does it even do? If it's to prevent the pin from sliding out, I can't see that it's needed, my pin is locked in tight.

Doesn't take much lateral movement to slip it out. Is it likely to slip out? Probably not, but it would suck if it did.

I don't get this..
I have an 08 350Z..and yes..when I first drove it, the clutch took a bit of getting used to. I stalled this mofo at first when taking off. However, I learned how to feather the clutch, using the ball of my foot. It's a piece of cake to engage once you have figured this out. So much pissing and moaning over nothing as far as I'm concerned. The STOCK clutch pedal works fine and dandy...just have to adjust to it.

Woops..need to edit this..
Should read>>>
