You mentioned that you had your clutch kit "redone"? Do you mean that you had a JWT kit in the car and that you pulled it out and had it rebuilt? Or did you just pull the OE clutch out and put new parts from JWT in the car? Let me know as your answer may impact my answer. Ultimately there are a few possible caused. The most probably one is listed below:

It is possible that your issues are relative to a misadjusted pedal that isn't providing enough throw to release the clutch. The pedal can be adjusted...any Dealer can assist with this...and I can talk you threw it if needed. You can also reference the Service Manual for your car for directions. Just let me know. Thanks,

Ok! So you adjusted the rod that connects the pedal to the master. But, have you checked the neautral position switch, which effectively can act as a pedal stop. If it is set to high it can limit the overall travel of the pedal even if the rod is fully adjusted? The nut that secures the "stop" is being the sensor. You will need either a 12mm or 14mm wrench to loosen the nut (sorry I can't remember which). Either way if you remember what you used to adjust the rod it will be the other of the two options.
