Default Clutch pedal adjustment

I just installed my new clutch and I think my clutch pedal needs to be adjusted. The clutch doesnt disengage until the very top of letting it out. I was wondering if it is just the clutch pedal that needs to be adjusted or is it something else? If it is just the clutch pedal, how hard is it to adjust?


Thanks

A new Clutch is going to grab really good first time installed. Most of the time just installing a clutch, the petal adjustment from the factory will be perfectly fine, if not adjust to your likings. What stage is the clutch or is it just stock?

Its stock clutch. The car doesnt move until I am almost at the top of being off the pedal. It doesnt grab as soon as the pedal comes off the floor or anywheres close to it. Could this be a problem? Could it be my clutch fluid?

Thanks

Here ya go if you need to adjust it:
https://honda-tech.com/forums/showth...=clutch+adjust

I had to do the same thing when I put in a new clutch MC but hopefully you don't have to do this just because of a new clutch. Unless you just personally want a different feel.

Tip I would have is park on a slight hill so you can test and don't tighten the bolt till you test the feel and like it. Might take a few tries.
