My wife recently had back surgery and is finding the clutch pedal effort on our 1989 RS to be too much for her now. Has anyone experimented with lightening the pedal pressure on thier car, possibly using a lighter return spring or different size master/slave cylinders?

 

i was going to say, all lightnings are automatics.. they dont have clutches...


then i remembered im on a 3rdgen board... lol.


all i can reccomend is using a normal stock replacement clutch.. they're usually lighter then the performance ones...





btw, if you want to feel better about it, go push in the clutch in a new cobra. it'll make your current one seem featherlight.

 

It has a factory clutch in it, she's just gotten used to the clutch in our Jetta (6" travel, light as a feather)!!!

I drove my coworker's '04 Cobra... What a beast!!!!
