I have a 99 GT (89k mi) with a FRPP king Cobra clutch in it, and it was installed by the previous owner. When I first got the car the clutch bit very hard, and the car drove great.

Lately i've driven the car harder than usual, and now the clutch seems to have mushed up a little. It seems to grab at the same usual point (about 1/3 the way up) when I let the clutch out from a first gear start (giving it gas or just usig the clutch to get the car moving), but while moving it feels like it grabs much higher up (~2/3 of the way). The clutch also seems to disengage higher up than usual during normal driving. I'll go to shift into a higher gear and it seems like as soon as I push in the clutch it disengages, and it engages higher up like i said before. It doesn't feel like it's slipping at all though. It'll bite if I lt the clutch out quickly, but it's just softer than it used to be. If I get on it I can still chirp 2nd and even 3rd most of the time. Kinda confusing if you ask me.

I've tried adjusting the clutch with the stock adjuster, but it doesn't help. If anone has any suggestions, please let me know.
