Clutch stop?

My clutch pedal has a pretty long ways to go to the floor. Coming from the bmw world, everyone uses clutch stops. Anyone doing it with there 996tt? Suppliers?

Checked on this too. The problem is you will not be able to start the car. I agree with what you're saying about the clutch travel. Maybe someone can chime in on alternatives.

Introduce some air into the system and you'll acheive the same results.

Thought about that also since I had an M too. The only problem is that you can hear the relay(whatever it is) click almost all the way down to start the car. So now when I drive, I try to press the clutch in to that point(at the click) to shift. Best of luck.

The clutch pedal start switch can be bypassed to use a pedal stop. I'm not sure if that is a good solution though.

I really dislike the 996TT clutch. It has a really long pedal throw and then finally the clutch abruptly engages. For such a great car, why such a crappy feel? Even my cars with heavy duty aftermarket clutches feel better. It's surprising for such an otherwise perfect sports car.
