Clutch pedal height

Basically this is simple...why is my clutch pedal considerably higher than the brake pedal. And by considerable I mean an inch or two higher. If I slide my shoe over from the brake to the clutch, the clutch pedal will hit the side of my shoe...not the sole, but the middle of my shoe.

Ideas? Suggestions?

To answer that question, yes and no. It's been like that since I've owned it, and other than some weird rattle when the rpms drop too low (when I should have downshifted) it pretty functional. The clutch engagement point is high just like the pedal. I've owned lots of hondas and this is off. Drivability is fine other than that. It doesn't grind gears or no other significant problem.

That being said, it would be hard to launch if I were going to do that. I can't exactly race off the line with it this way, not that I am going to. It's possible I just need a clutch.

I'll keep you posted if I figure anything out.
