I just finished getting my cc stage 4 clutch installed and now my engagement point is extremely low. I have pretty slam the clutch pedal all the way to the ground to disengage the clutch everytime I shift. Is there a way to adjust the clutch disengagement point because now I'm grinding going into third sometimes.

What kind of clutch did you get?

It sounds like you have a pressure plate that is defective. When you change out the clutch for a performance type, they usually grab quite close to the floor. This allows for smoother shifts as well as faster engagement. If you are getting grinds, it's definitely off. I have had and used Clutch Masters, ACT, and Center Force which none have made a grinding sound when ever I shifted. All of them grabbed very close to the floor. This is so you do not have a power loss between shifts. All you have to do is flick your foot up just a little to pop the clutch and it's fully engaged.

It only grinds third when i shift fast sometimes. It only rarely did it before but since i've installed the clutch it does it a bit more. I think its because the engagement point is so much lower now and i literally have to press the pedal all the way to the ground to disengaged the clutch and for some reason it seems that it doesn't fully disengage for third from time to time. My friend told me that i may need to bleed the system because i may have air in it. Will that do anything really?

This can possibly help but if you are doing that, you should probably have a steel clutch line installed as well. The factory hose could be stretching from the pressure increased pressure of the new clutch. They are not expensive and it could fix your problem.
