I have driven my car the exact same way, but I will be swapping the clutch for the 3rd time in the last ~40K miles, all with a broken TOB.
Same symptoms occurr.
Metallic noises if you compress the pedal to the floor or it won't start at all with it to the floor
Increasing pressure to compress the pedal
and for me, it finally snaps the TOB
I don't remember examining the clutch fork that closely the last time though, so when I pull it I'm definitely going to grind down if I see any contact marks.

I was beginning to think I was the only one with these problems.
Fullforce, what did you end up doing and how has it been working for you?

You may have another problem if it's breaking the TOB. But I would defiantly crawl up under there and look at the fork to see if it's rubbing. I have my clutch safety start switch bypassed so I never have to push my cultch to the floor. I am still driving it as is and have had no problems at all.
