Default Clutch Adjustment

Hey guys! I would like to say hello, as I am new here and am happy to have found a forum for our cars! I own a Civic Si, and lately the clutch engagement seams to be rather late (further up the travel of the clutch pedal) so it either needs adjustment or it is starting to go on me. Sometimes if i let out the clutch quicker than normal under acceleration it will jitter slightly, which to me means signs of slippage.

Anyways, what I was wondering was where the clutch adjustment area is as i would like to make it engage earlier throughout pedal movement and if this fixes the problem, great. Otherwise, i'll need to replace the clutch if this doesn't help. Thank you in advance for everyones help! Looking forward to sourcing other problems through this site...and yes i know what the search function is! (I own a TT 300zx as well as a new Civic and am active on forums for those!)
