turn it counter clockwise like 2-3 full turns

I tried both directions, small increments and eventually just brought it back to original position. This was over the coarse of a week or so, when it seemed it was fine it just gradually started feeling like it always did. It didn't work for ME, I'm sure others had better luck.

How much of a difference did the RJM clutch pedal make compared to the stock clutch prior to the sticking issues? Worth $250?

EDIT: Damn... after reading the reviews of the RJM clutch pedal, I might have to get one... It sounds pretty sweet.

I was pretty skeptical myself but upon reading the many reviews i figured id give it a try. after every stop n go it just got too damn much. I've read the reviews as well and that's how i decided to pull the trigger. If you do get it, let us know how it works for you.

I rebuilt my master cylinder for $25 and put fresh fluid in there for $5 and all is good. Clutch feels better than it did when I bought the car. Hopefully the fix lasts, haha

Still new to the maintenance on the Z.
Have a 08.
Clutch pedal is stuck to the floor. I parked it, left it for the day, 24 hrs later its stuck to the floor.

Had the clutch and slave replaced about 7 months ago with stock slave and Jim wolf clutch.

Looking around I can't find how to bleed the 08 HR clutch.
Fluid level is on the low side but above the min line.

So in saying that whats the easiest way to bleed an HR clutch?

2 people, one in the car and one under. Slowly press the pedal down and release 3-4 times then hold it to the floor. As you are holding it to the floor, the person under the car opens the bleeder screw on the CSC tube that exits the transmission bell housing on the driver's side and then closes it again. Only after that you can release teh clutch pedal.

Note: The pedal will stock down each time the bleeder screw is opened, then released. Use the toe of your foot to pull the pedal back up the first stroke or two and then it should return normally.

Repeat 4-5 times, refill reservoir, and repeat process again until you feel like you have purged the system of the old fluid and have new fluid in the entire system.

You can not bleed it to much, but you can leave air in the system if you do not do this cycle enough times so I would over bleed it if anything. It can be a trick sometimes to get air out of this system, just be patient and keep bleeding ...

Question: why is the reservoir low? Are you sure there is not a leak? Bleeding will not do any good if there is a leak, so make sure to check for leaks carefully.

hr's are a different beast over the de's. i would be willing to bet my paycheck that your slave is toast they are plastic and if you do research you will see there was a recall on them. anywho, if it is bad, you will have to drop the transmission, if you are not comfortable doing it, then get ready to shell out a lot of money....

just being brutally honest with you bro
