I just put in a Centerforce stage 1 clutch in and my clutch pedal is mushy. It isn't stiff at all and I was wondering if anyone has had the same problem or if someone knows why my pedal is like this?:wtf:

you should really break in a clutch properly or else you can burn it very easy. I personally am very happy with my CF dual Friction clutch grips very well strong pedal after about 200 miles of break in.

The clutch pedal seems mushy b/c the spring is new. That happend with mine.

Lets hope you didn't kill the thing but mine grabs nice and hard esp when shifting at high rpms.

Well I have a straight pipe instead of a cat :D hehehe that sounds funny. :) So I might be able to have shorter throws than you. I might need to readjust it to be shorter. I can't remember if I needed to do that after so long.
