Default Help with modded clutch pedal

Hi, i bought a 350Z with the clutch pedal modded to be closer to the driver, but is was welded, so i need to buy the stock parts to return it to the stock position, here is a photo:



I asume i just have to buy a clutch pedal and a clutch slave cylinder, do i need something else?

Also could i just remove the end part that was welded with an extension on the clutch slave cylinder and leave the current clutch slave cylinder or it cannot be separated and the clutch slave cylinder has to be changed completely?

thanks, but if i get a cheap used clutch slave cylinder can i just replace this part from inside the car without taking out the rest of it:



i dont want to change the entire part, just this piece, if is possible.

Master cylinder, not slave. And, +1 on the RJM adjustable pedal kit. Best mod on my '08.

Depends on how they modified the end of the master cylinder, it is an adjustable end piece that is threaded on and can be removed from the main rod of the master cylinder.

the end piece was bolted to the end of the regular end of the master cylinder

can this part be removed from inside the car on the stock master cylinder (since is where the extension was bolted, not threaded:

It can, and I'd be surprised if they did the welding of those pieces while they were under the dash. Get in there and have a close-up look for yourself. The hardest part will likely be getting the adjustment correct when you reinstall the part. Count the number of turns required to unthread it, so you can thread it on the same when you put it back.
