think its worn plates - but I havent bleed it since removing and refitting the gearbox - it has a dry break connector so should be okay and a concentric hydralic release bearing. but bleed it Friday anyhow.
Soz mate , promised someone else first dibs, ill let ya no if it falls thru.

Hi Steven,
I wasnt like this untill recently, cant remember if it dramtically changed since i removed and refitted the box, so although it has dry break, im thinking , a bleed of the system wound go a miss. Not sure if pedal is adjustable.
We can compare lengths on Saturday nite.

Lol at lengths. Pedal is adjustable. We have the dry break too, and had to re bleed the clutch the other week as i had inadvertantly pressed the pedal getting out of the car whilst the engine was out, this allowed the bearing to fully extend and allow a bit of air in.
Will compare on Saturday

well done to all involved.

Thanks guys, the hard work by everyone involved finally paid off, with 3 runs in the 9's with the quickest being 9.67 at 143mph, which was without Nitrous, so really looking forward to getting back out in it and seeing if it will go further.
The next two runs were trial runs with nitrous, which resulted in the car running off the scale rich, it still did a 9.81 @ 142 and a 9.7.
After Gav had done his handling bit, i went for another test run to check the fueling, gently launched in 1st then nailed it in 2nd, as i went for 3rd the gearstick went sloppy and the box wouldn't come out of 2nd. Damn!
Pulled the box out when we got home and its broken some OEM selector parts
9.7 run here YouTube - Scoobysprint series Lateral performance impreza
