DIY: High Clutch? want to lower your clutch engagement point?
Alright guys, i was on my350z, and ran across this thread. I tried it myself, and wow it makes a big difference, feels like a whole new car.

(Im sure some of you have seen it on my350z, but i know some people dont go to that site. I also did a search on driver and couldnt find a thread.)
ps you might have to adjust the cruise control, its the switch that the clutch hits when fully disengaged.

I just called Infiniti of Scottsdale and they told me that yes there was a way to adjust the clutch by doing the above method.
Then I asked if I could do it myself and the guy told me to look online, otherwise they could charge me for it.
Then he said that it wouldn't affect the life of my clutch.

Im going to call up my local dealership and see if it can be done and if they are willing to do it for me at no cost. I've heard from many people that this mod causes premature clutch wear. If my dealer does it, and it does infact cause my clutch to die, theyll be replacing it at their cost

I think that^ question is still open to debate, but as others have mentioned a small adjustment should be ok.
I also thought this would be my first mod and then backed away at the height of the Big Debate. But the OEM point has caused me to slip the clutch a bit too much (IMO) over this first year of ownership. I'm about ready to try it now, as the OEM clutch is feeling a bit weak and I'm not about to put in the NISMO clutch/flywheel I have before getting a better engagement height of the pedal and relearning at that level.
