I have had a stiff clutch on my 89 hatch ever since I have owned it, it never really bothered me much, but now that I am commuting to Richmond hill, it's starting to suck (rather I am knowticing it more). I have already replaced the cable, made no difference, I am wondering if it could be the clutch itself, I haven't touched it since I have had the car, I was wondering if there could be something wrong with it (or its a cheap aftermarket) could something like that cause a stiff clutch? Because I don't think the clutch is worn out (doesn't slip, works fine) so I would prefer not to have to go to the trouble of replacing it?

is there anything else I should check?, anyone got any ideas?..thanks

maybe you have a heavy pressure plate...I mean what is considered stiff really. Check your pedel assembly for wear

if all else fails go with it and your left leg will be bigger than your right. I mean dsm guy's put up wiht 2600 lbs pp's and even 2900 adn 3200 lbs pp civics being like 900-1200

I don't know, maybe it has the wrong pressure plate...I drive my dads EF, and his is soo light, like nothing at all...
