Newage clutch feel.
On a newage, where would your clutch pedal be, or at least your biting point, of a worn clutch be? Close to the top or close to the bottom of the pedal stroke?

IIRC the position of "bite" does not change as the hydraulics compensate for the clutch plate wear......
If you are thinking about the clutch slipping then stick it in 4th at 30MPH and accelerate and see if the revs rise faster than the expected road speed.

brand new exedy pink box clutch fitted in my 04 sti a month ago, the biting point is still near the top, as said above its a hydraulic clutch so the bite point never really changes.
i have had 3 new age cars and the clutch was in the same place on all of them.
the only way to check for slippage is put it in a high gear and accelerate from a low speed, the clutch will slip when the boost comes in if its worn.
it is possible to adjust the pedal but i wouldnt bother as its high on all newages so not a problem if its not slipping
