Clutch slave question

Does it have a restrictor inside of it? Like this?

This is the best way i can describe what i'm after.



My last car had one and i removed it and it felt heaps better. I'm going to bleed my slave today with fresh fluid so i figure i might kill two birds with one stone.


That little spring/plate with tiny hole in it NEVER makes my far left pedal feel good. I dont see how people can stand a clutch feel like that. I'm going on well over 14 hours without sleep due to having to go to my little brothers hs graduation in an hour or so. Bear with me.....

nope, no pill in the FC master of slave.
And they put them there on some cars as it slows the release of the clutch making them smoother, easier to get the car moving, and prevents clutch dumps that are hard on the engine, tranny, half shafts, etc, to make the car more reliable and have less warranty work.
You need to keep in mind that only a small percent of people who get stick shifts give two ***** about how it feels and probably don't know any better, They don't build the car for you, they build them for the average person that will buy it. I have never seen a pill in a sports car, note i did not say sporty car but sports car.... like the RX7.

Great post and thanks for answering my question.

I haven't gotten around to bleeding it yet but i'm hoping that will make the difference in feel.
