I have this same problem and I dont' believe it's normal. I'm a valet driver and my car is the only car that won't go into first above 5-10 MPH. I've even driven other celicas that are able to do it. I may be mistaken but I believe this problem began shortly after I installed a new clutch. My clutch also engages just above the floor, my mechanic tried adjusting the pedal up but he said it's maxed out. Anyone know what my problem may be? The clutch has been bled more than several times.
