10000 miles, no problems. I will need a new clutch soon, but thats from my overzealous 6.5k drops. I've done about 20 of those and have about 1/4 of my clutch left. But the clutch still works great with no slipping. I was planning on a new clutch at this time anyways, which is why I did all those drops regardless on consequence. I originally thought for sure that I'd only be able to do about five before the clutch went, but its held up like a champ even after my ABUSE of it.

It's now been proven that its not the Mitsu car, its the Mitsu drivers that are ****ing up the Evo.

Update: 25200 miles, still on stock everything (except tires). Haven't had any major issues except one P0300 code, which the dealer fixed and hasn't come back yet.

I had a bad throw-out bearing from the factory. Mitsu replaced the whole clutch at 5k! It was not slipping just making a lot of noise. I'm now at 84k miles on the stock clutch and I have no issues.

84K!! dayummnnn ...

I'm at 30K and am starting to get miscellaneous rattles and have an intake leak (still an unmolested stock intake). Rotors are finally warped, but that was to be expected with how I drive Clutch is still going strong.
