wow, plastic CDV's on the new cars. Seems like plastic always eventually replaces steel with everything.
anyways, did this delete to 2 E46's and it makes the clutch feel normal, like the way it is supposed to. Highly recommend this straightforward and almost free mod.
Above is of my tranny mods: CDV deletes, selector rod swaps (OEM pieces pictured) and clutch pedal swap (OEM pictured). I put a GS Performance steel clutch pedal in my E46 which shortened engagement distance by about 1.5 to 1.75"
