Dead space at the beginning of throttle pedal travel

I have an 04 RX-8 that has a bit of a dead space at the beginning of the throttle pedal travel. I have to push the throttle pedal maybe half an inch before the throttle starts to open (doesn't sound like much, but it's enough to be annoying when driving around town or in traffic).

I've driven other drive-by-wire cars that seem to begin to open the throttle as soon as the pedal moves. Looking at the pedal/sensor assembly, it doesn't look like there's a way to adjust it.


Does anybody else have this issue or know of a way to fix it?
