Cool Anyway to get the clutch pressure close to a S2000?

I have a bad left ankle from repeated injuries.

Is there anyway to make the FD3S clutch stifness similar to a S2000?

I realize more power = stiffer clutch but thought i'd ask.

NOTE: I did do a search under "CLUTCH STIFF" and couldn't find anything.

A lot of newer cars have clutch dampening valves and the ap2 s2000 even has something called a clutch delay valve. When side stepping the clutch in an ap2 it let's it engage at a safe "delayed" speed to prevent driveline shock as they were experiencing severe transmission and differential failure from this. My 1993 Nissan 240sx had a clutch dampening box. It's a box that makes the pedal stiffness lighter. I'm sure with a little bit of effort you could put one in. Most of the 240 guys take em out so they're easy to find. If not you could probably get a new one for give or take $100.

Feed clutch slave. It can be purchased from rhdjapan.com. I have an exedy twin plate on my car and just got this feed clutch slave installed. It now feels like a stock clutch pedal. Pretty great stuff. Never thought about one of the boxes like whats on a 240 but that is there to make the pedal softer. I have a nismo clutch slave with that box still on my car for my 240 and it is the softest clutch pedal i have ever felt.
