Clutch height adjustment

Hi,

I just got a 2006 6MT G35 coupe, 3 weeks ago, and I'm not liking the height of the clutch. It sits kinda high and I have to raise my heel a tad bit off the floor to get my whole foot on the clutch.
Is there a way to adjust the height of the clutch????

I did a search and all I found was this 1 guy talking about how he loves the "clutch remedy fix" in some threads, but doesn't mention what it's for and how to do it.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I was gonna do this a long time ago, thanks for the reminder ... I think it will make the car more enjoyable to drive in traffic (and when speed shifting at the dragstrip )

nice tip, never thought you could do that to the clutch.

this method is even easier, and easier to return your car to "stock" form. took like 5 min to prep and 1 min to actually install.

Yeah, but this simply reduces clutch pedal travel.. you basically put a dead stop beneath the pedal so when you push it all the way in, it'll stop before the floor. so the actual height of the pedal is not lowered. That's why I went with the first method. lowered the pedal and the engagement point just to my liking.
