I was going to do this but in that thread they mentioned a bit more play with the spring removed so I was kinda turned off by that

I don't think that's true, but I'll test it in an hour or so when I head out and report back (hopefully I remember, since I am 100yrs old

).

The "slop" is the first half inch or so. Not really noticeable. Absolutely not a reason to not pull out the spring. If it bothers you track down the softer replacement, but I can't imagine it being that annoying.

do this asap, best mod you will do to your car IMO, drives 100% better after spring is swapped out to century spring.

You probably won't even be able to tell. Mine doesn't feel like I have any slack, actually seems like my clutch pedal is a little lower at top of arch.

Only negative is a little vibration if your holding your foot lightly over the pedal.

I don't keep my foot anywhere near the pedal unless it's time to shift, so I wouldn't know if there's a vibration.

If there is slack, Enkei, it's not even noticeable really. But, I'm still gonna check on it here when I leave.

I didn't notice any real difference with the spring removed. YMMV.
