What do you mean "pulled in?" meaning when you pull the clutch lever? if so, how can you be "engaged" when it's pulled in? need clarification there. You may VERY SIMPLY need to adjust your clutch cable...how much play is there when you FIRST begin to pull in the clutch? Should be no more than say 3mm or so. I like mine a bit tighter, less slack. You can adjust at the lever or by the engine. Try that......adjust it tighter by the engine and see if that helps it.
Just because a caliper says BREMBO doesn't mean you are getting the same quality/caliber of Brembo that you'd find on, say, an AMA superbike or a top of the line 1098 Ducati. Even Brembo has varying degrees of "quality." Even their lowest entry level caliper is still good though.
The Nissin calipers are great. You have the recall done so fine. You'd benefit greatly from better pads more than any other brake mod. next? Radial master cylinder, which is what the 2008 S3 has. The "Brembo" caliper is bling bling and helps marketing....period. people have a ahrd time wrapping their heads around that and just want a caliper that says BREMBO. lol
Other than that and a few minor cosmetic changes (bars, tail, rims, etc) there's NO difference in the powerplant or suspension...and that is what makes a motorcycle.
I've beaten up a 2008 S3 and I own a heavily modified 2007 S3. I felt a difference.....mine was faster and handled WAY better....thanks to the mods I've made.
