GT6 clutch hydraulics are pretty much self adjusting. The diaphragm pushes the 
linkage and push rod back into the slave cylinder. Adjusting the length of the 
push rod, other than a basic setting, will not alter clutch performance. The 
fluid flows from the master cylinder, and allows the slave cylinder piston to 
rest wherever the clutch diaphragm returns it to.  
Does pumping the pedal a few times help? If it does, probably the 
hydraulics/air/bad seals.
 I would certainly try the easy things first. Bleed the clutch hydraulics. If 
that doesnâ??t work, try rebuilding the master and slave cylinders. If neither 
of those do the trick, my guess is the clutch disc is possibly coming apart and 
hanging up as it gets hot, causing the clutch to grab.
