what i have noticed is immediate break-in of clutch is vital in correlation to clutch life...no boost for 1 k...no buts or questions....

I'm in a similar boat. 53k+ of DD duties and some canyon carving but no drag abuses and it is still o.k. (not great but certainly workable for my style). I don't tend to kill clutches as my previous car had 165k+ on the original when it was traded in on the Evo.

I've picked up a replacement (Exedy Twin) at a great price for when the time comes. I may have the tranny freshened up at the same time if finances allow.
