Loosen it, that brings the clutch away from the fly. EG turn the adjustment nut left, up the thread.

Because there is a pivot inside the clutch it works in reverse to what seems sensible ;)

But alot of the travel is to make up for different thickness flywheels and plates, so most probably it's on the way anyway.

I like the wheels!
It's the tyres that look bad.

Trumpets sound best though!

Glad to hear it's sorted, sorry if my previous comment was a bit harsh, just needs chunky tyres and it'll look sick. The comment was aimed at the tyres not the general car.

No idea mate, Couldn't believe it. Just put it on, took it up road, pulled hard all way up the rev range! It can stay, it might be ugly. I'll polish it or something, I'll do something different maybes.
