Today while I was driving I shifted into second and my clutch pedal hit the floor and felt like it had no pressure. At first I thought it was one of my cylinders so I pulled over to look. Theres a silver bracket with tabs that stick out on each side that look like they hold the pedal in place. It looked to me like it had snapped on one side. My car still drives perfectly normal, except my clutch feels a lot shorter and stiffer.

Soo my question is, is it terribly bad to drive on it like this, or should I buy a new bracket? I don’t mind how it feels, its just different now.

(p.s. sorry for the paragraph haha, I’ll try to take pics once its light out tomorrow.)

Your clutch bracket is busted… means you aren’t pressing in the master cylinder properly. In the long run probably not the best for your synchros.

I’d get it welded instead of getting the Nismo one. The Nismo one is the same as the stock one but it has 2x more welds on it.
