Adjustments? nope. The stock cable has a rubber gromet at the firewall, with a heavy clutch the cable moves under pressure. The gromet absorbs this movement, witch is good. When using a firewall adjuster, the adjuster is a solid piece of aluminum and has no rubber to absorb movement. This now transfers the movement to the firewall and the firewall is absorbing it causing it to flex. Now the adjuster isn't lined up due to the firewall being bent in its area. i found this out today when the clutch wouldn't disengage for me to shift. I bent the firewall back with a pry bar and put the rubber back on and adjusting the cable under car. Now the clutch feels perfect. I like the solid quad. for the reason that I can put the clutch high on the pedal for faster shifts. If this kit is used dont use the firewall adjuster without adding support to the wall, and some companies offer an adjuster with a plate AFM is one of them. Thanks for your input though!!!!!!
