stiffer clutch??

wouldnt anyone agree w/ me that the clutch is too soft?? it's like feather, and in the words of my friend... no feelings...

i dun need it to be as stiff as a rock.. but i want to push a lil harder.. is there a way to stiffen it abit??

thx~~

Wouldn't getting a stiffer pressure plate make it feel heavier? And might as well get the grabbier upgraded clutch while you're in there.

You don't get fatigued/tired as fast especially driving in the city where you shift a lot more than usual. I like that feather feel. It's light, and plus you're not riding the clutch for a better feel anyways when you're driving. Left foot should be on the dead pedal.
