6mt late clutch engagement

Those of us that opted for a 6mt, do you notice really late clutch pedal engagement? I am noticing that it engages at the very top of the pedal articulation. It grabs fine, but it "feels" later than the f80. Anyone else noticed similar?

I feel the opposite. I just picked up mine saturday. I feel it engages sooner than my F80.

Feels pretty similar to the F80, i.e., too high. BMS clutch stop helped.

I ordered a clutch stop last night, hoping it helps.

I had to remove mine as it made the clutch not disengage correctly with quick shifts.

Did you use all of the "spacers" on the back? I have heard its best to remove one or two of those.

I tried it with all configs. One spacer made it notchy on a quick shift sometimes a lockout. Then the pad fell off the spacer. In the trash it went, oem pad went back in. No problems after that isn't me just hitting the middle of the gate.
