I had the same problem with my V3 caused similar headache I put engine back in with new clutch kit, assembled and walla clutch pedal only returned half way/ scratched head and bleed clutch still no better, replaced master, bleed clutch still no joy, replaced clutch cylinder and bleed.. still the pedal only returned half way, so ended up removing clutch pedal box and installed 1 from a bf im wrecking and now its mint.

The only thing i could find wrong with the old pedal was its worn out where the pin goes threw and holds the master cylinder on

maybe there was to much slack and couldn't put enough load or didn't have the right angle on the pedal to flick it back up as the pedal needs to get to a certain point before it can return on its own and that just wasn't happen.

OMG look at the bloody spring!!!So how does that have anything to do with pushing the pedal back up????? If anything that spring would do the complete opposite .. Fact is that spring in the picture above is there to keep the thrust bearing tight on the pressure plate so when you engage the clutch time after time it doesn't flop backwards and then forwards coursing excessive wear, instead that spring makes the thrust bearing mated to pressure plate so there isnt that play/movement. Thought you lot would of known better especially with such reputable posters.

Think again Nigel....

What happens when you get pad knock off?

Here let me tell ya.. Pad knock off is when the pads get pushed back further than normal into the calipers and you get a soft pedal or have to pump them up.

The spring is doing the same thing as knockoff springs.

What it is doing is stopping the clutch slave from working itself backwards due to the fork pressing it back. This stops you needing to pump the clutch pedal to get it to pump back up and disengage the clutch..

Have a think before you jump in and tell us Subaru put it there for shits n giggles..

You stated exactly what it does - keep the brg mated to the pressure plate so there is no play !

Play that take pedal travel to over come !

Your bold statement reminds me of a very cool saying

Only FOOLS and CHILDREN pass comment on things 1/2 done or things they know NOTHING ABOUT !!!

(YOU not being a child - makes you the one who knows nothing about these springs ! )

WTF are you on about?? Why don't you take a week to study the function of that spring before you make even more of a idiot of yourself, maybe you just hate admitting your wrong, You stated that the spring you 2 are harping on about has everything to do with the pedal return..when in fact it has nothing to do with it!.. yes NOTHNG!!!!! If you can't see that then your the fool not me Bundy.. but keep telling yourself you are ''Right '' if that makes you feel better about yourself. HAY!!

Why don't you go out to your Subaru with a good working pedal and remove this spring and depress the clutch pedal.. you will find that the clutch pedal will fully return with ''no spring'' now if what you are saying is true then the clutch pedal would only return to the ''half way point'' but that isn't the case and the pedal will make a full return without the spring so in the end you are WRONG!! :P

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
