Is the clutch engagement point lower with aftermarket clutches? I honestly hate the stock setup...

Default I made one on my A4, out of a homedepot doorstop and some threaded rod, the s4 though

has a button like mechanism that gets pushed in when the clutch is depressed for starting the car, so you would jstu need to extend the finger that touches the switch. my a4 was easier becasue it didnt have one of these as the car could be started in neutral w/o pushing in the clutch, it was a great mod, jsut stuff it til it stops then release, made shifting much faster

Default That's pretty random, or maybe he set it wrong. I had >50,000 miles on two E36 with no problems.

One was putting down more then double stock HP on the original clutch at 80K.
