I was pretty much a track only car for the first 10,000 miles. I'm the second owner.

Thanks for all the input guys.

The clutch has been a little questionable ever since I bought the car so I'm not too surprised that it's going for good now. Ohh well, time to put something stronger in so that I can really start modding the car.

I'd swap it pretty quick too it deteriorates real fast - after a few months I cant touch the throttle in any gear without the revs shooting up, car not going nearly anywhere. It's on jacks now til I get an exedy twin

On a note, my clutch lasted forever - 45k miles, ~380whp and ~370 lb ft torque.
