Hey this is a question to all you 6mt owners out there. I am getting ready to hit 40k on my 04 6mt. My question is how many of you are still on your OEM stock clutch/flywheel setup and how many miles do you have on it. At what mileage do you think I should start looking to change my stock OEM clutch. Everything seems fine but I just want to get an idea and time frame to do my next mod. Thanks for the info guys.

I took out my oem clutch/flywheel at 12k miles to swap in an OS Giken str setup. Both the tech and I took a look at the clutch and flywheel and were suprised to see that there was almost zero wear whatsoever. I'm sure its life undoubtably has to do w/ driving style. I've heard some who have lasted 60k or more on the stock setup--Others who have had to make repairs after only 20k or so. But if you have various mods and drive hard, the service life could be greatly decreased.

someone in this thread claiming to have 102k on the stock clutch and still going strong...

25k on my stock setup. 3 autocross events, ~60 dyno pulls, daily abuse, and 125 passes down the drag strip, which included 3k rpm clutch drops and power shifting through every gear.
It just started to slip when I had it replaced. At the time it only slipped at the track, and that happened just a couple of times. It only slipped on me on the street once, when I full-throttle shifted from 2nd gear, but accidentally engaged 5th.

You are an animal....lol. Not bad though if the clutch takes that much abuse. I haven't beaten mine up too much though. Here and there on the highway but nothing major.

35K. So far so good. I expect it to last many many more miles. I drive pretty hard and tow a trailer, but have never had to replace a clutch. My last manual cars: 95 Maxima SE over 100K on stock clutch. 91 300ZX sold w/ 190K stock clutch. 91 Escort GT (yes - a ford (mazda)) sold with 196K on stock clutch. All of these cars were run at the drag strip, autocrossed, and towed motorcycle trailers (the 300zx didn't tow a trailer).
My bikes on the other hand - clutches frequently only last a couple nights at the drag strip or a couple months roadracing.
