Clutch pedal travel = too long, is it adjustable?

Hey guys, I was just curious as to whether or not the clutch travel is adjustable on these cars. The pedal travel on my 02 6 speed is very long compared with my wife's rav4 and longer than my TA.

the LENGTH is not adjustable, but you can adjust something on it. if you look on the pedal you can see that the peice from the clutch master to the pedal has threads on it. if you unhook the pedal you can rotate the peice that connects the rod to the pedal and move it in and out. im not sure what that changes though.

you know what...i driven a few different 6spds locally...and all of them are naturally mid to high grabbing points....and even on the boards, people say its clutch grab is mid to high....which might be a pain for some cuz their previous car might've been low grab point
