The engagement point is a bit lower now, and it takes a little bit of getting used to. The car still crawls a little bit every once in awhile, but now I'm able to shift much more quick and smooth. So I finally made it through the day without getting stuck getting in and out of gear, so it's nice.

I'll give it a week before doing high RPM shift testing, but so far I am able to shift a bit quicker without grinding.

With the lower engagement point there's quite a bit of pedal play, so hopefully swapping out the springs will help.

The last thing you want to do is lower the engagement point if you are having release issues. This will make it even harder to disengage/shift.
The HR and VHR have a very high engagement point and it gets even higher with a aftermarket clutch but it needs to be there, You just can't lower it or you effect the clutch release.
