Hello, I've fitted a Clio brake servo on my e30. I also used a 20mm bullet to fit in the master cilinder. But now everything is mounted; my brake pedal is still way more down the floor then it supposed to be. Is there something wrong or I forgot? Do I need to di something with the adjustment rod of the servo?

Are you sure the bullet is long enough? 20mm is the "average" but some have had to make theirs longer/shorter. Mine was around 25mm I think but I'm using an M3 cylinder. I had to fiddle about with the linkage to get it just right.
Just mess about with it till you get a better feel.

Take off the under dash panel on the driver's side, and open the glovebox on the passenger side, and you will be able to see both ends of it. It has a normal thread on one end, and a reverse thread on the other, so loosening the locknuts and turning it will change its length.
There are a couple of flats on the rod near to where it passes the clutch pedal which fit a 7mm (?) spanner to enable you to turn it.
