more likely the spring has broken, I dont think it is a wear item. It either is broken or not
If it is harder to press in the clutch pedal, then spring is broken
'You can either replace the entire assembly for $75-100 or replace the spring by getting one from a junkyard orlook at this thread http://rennlist.com/forums/996-forum/343297-improved-clutch-action-dramatically.html
and it will tell you where you can locate a similar one.
Mine broke and I got one from Woody (itsnotanova) for IIRC, $15 shipped
Its an easy DIY
