Launch Question?!

I wanna retro-fit to cable-type clutch. Chirping 3rd gear with ease in a 108hp CRX si is great. The honda hydrolic clutchs just feel weak to me, also, they grab to high. I like it grabbiing right at the floor, and frankly, ive never been in a honda with a hydrolic cltuch that grabs low enough. Mike

i know of the adjusting of hydrolic cltuchs, (the nut on top of the pedal right?) If i do adjust to grab lower, will it "burn" the cltuch because the pressur eplate and disc are so close? Are there any negeitive side affects to have it grab lower? Mike

I can't see any reason why anyone would want to lower the engagement point, unless they were also going to lower the pedal height by the same amount. Why would you want to have to push the clutch pedal 3~4 inches without it actually doing anything? I wanted the clutch to start disengaging at the very moment that I started pushing it in. If you put the engagement point at the bottom of the pedal stroke, you will have a very short window of opportunity to make the gear shift while the clutch is disengaged. It seems like you would have to wait until your foot actually hits the floor before beginning the shift to the next gear. If you miss it, you'll get a grind. Adjusting it higher in the pedal stroke, make it possible to begin the shift into the next gear as soon as you start pushing the pedal in. Most the time, I've got it into the next gear before the pedal hits the floor.

wouldnt all of this have something to do with the LSD. Hell the reason you guys have to dump it at 7000 rpms or so is not because the lack of torque nor the RWD...it that nice honda LSD...it doesn't want you to loose traction. Now if you put enough power to the wheels both will spin equally. Ya'll shouldn't complain because your getting traction. Just my .02 I could be wrong.
