Tightening clutch??? is it possible?
I know my clutch (and car) is 21 years old...and well...the clutch is going to be needing a replacement but is there anyway to tighten somthing up so i have more pedal feel or engagment at a closer point.....my car never wants to go into reverse without making that ear bleeding imbarassing gear striping sound..people think im stupid and forget to push the clutch in but its all the way to the floor!!!! It drives fine but im just thinking could i tighten somthing up though???
i already have a new slave,,SS line,,and rebuilt master...it holds pressure so dont tell me to fill up the master or bleed it i even went to a local shop so they could use one of those guns to bleed it and i still have the same problem...and it sucks!!!!!!!!

It sounds like a 21 year old RX-7 to me. Change the tranny oil if you wish, try some redline/royal purple. That and get in the habbit of putting it in first gear, before you go in reverse. There are no syncros on the reverse, so I might do that like you said.

Wiat wait wait. Does it grind going into EVERY gear, or just reverse? If its all gears, then mess with the engagement thing. Which I never knew about so thank you for posting that. But, if its just reverse, your tranny is the culprit. See what your fluid looks like.
