How many miles on your OEM 6mt Clutch and Flywheel?
57K on my '04. I've only had the car since June on '08, but since then I've added the basic bolt-ons and done many mountain runs. Seems as strong as the day I got it. I do plan on going with an Exedy Clutch and lightweight flywheel when it shows signs of failure

i got 67k.. i just replaced it with the JWT Clutch/Flywheel combo cuz the motor got swapped and i only had to pay $100 at the dealer for labor..
i had the clutch slave cylinder problem where the clutch pedal sticks, resulting in burning the clutch,(NOT MY FAULT), since 10k miles.... the dealer gave me 3 brand new clutch pedals, that i didn't need, and a new transmission, that i didn't need but was stoked, til they finally figured out that it was the slave cylinder... 50 dollar part.. lol... i drove my car with a jacked up clutch for over 40k miles.dealer wouldn't warranty my clutch since it is a wearable part such as tires but that is so fuct up cuz the clutch was jacked because of a faulty slave cylinder.. so.. i asked the tech last week how bad the stock clutch looked when he took it out, and he told me there were some hot spots on it and that it was ready for change.. it slipped a tad...

i got a new motor due to oil consumption at 68k. while the motor was out i opted to put in a new clutch/flywheel for 100bux while the motor was out.. the clutch would have lasted another 30k easy.. but i just wanted a reason to change it..
