Default Clutch all the way at the top?

So only at the top of the pedel is where the clutch's friction point is. From the top if i pres it in about 1" it is pressed in enough to get it away from the friction point. how can i change this i have tried adjusting my TMC but the only thing that changed is the distance on the pedal.

Spec stage 3 clutch.

This is the way the Tick unit works. You'll get used to it over time and will never want to go back. (It took me a couple of months of DD to get used to it.)

I may be doing g something wrong then lol. My high rpm shifting sounds bad, almost like grinding. But I can't see how that is possible because the clutch is all the way to the floor

Could be overextending the pressure plate. Did you start all the down and then work your way up till it just starts to creep when in gear and peddle depressed while revving the engine?

I may try that in the morning, I already dont like my new neighbors. They think my car is a "White Trash Machine" lol so im gonna see if they like spinning tires xD

I had a family member that works on transmission watch/listen to how i drive/shift. He said it seemed to be a toruqe issue. Which i could see. Im going to try and get a safty loop since my factory one was removed for the 3" True Duals. and then get a new touqre arm, and replace my motor mounts.

I may be over extending. i will have to check in the morning though, thanks for the idea
