How do you adjust how far the clutch has to be pushed in before starting a 1996 Nissan 200SX?

The clutch pedal adjustment on the 1996 Nissan 200SX is done by adjusting the clutch pedal height. The pedal height should be set so that there is a slight amount of play in the pedal free travel (before the clutch engages). To adjust the clutch pedal height, loosen the lock nut on the clutch pedal rod, then turn the pedal rod to adjust the height of the clutch pedal. Once the desired pedal height is achieved, tighten the lock nut to secure the pedal rod in place.
