stock clutch life
#67
86k miles, think the stock clutch is about to go, as I'm beginning to smell it after any drive. Doesn't actually seem to be slipping tho, but I figure why push it more than necessary. I've had mods for about a year now (since ~63k mi), but have recently started driving it much, much harder (although I never launch it), so I'm guessing that's probably what has caused the issue to rear its head now. Otherwise, I think it could have gone for another 20k at the very least.

I never understood why Mitsu didn't sack up and put a clutch in there that was capable of handling at minimum what they claimed the car to be capable of. I went 4000 miles but I launched my car at AutoX events. When I was really into that, I carried a spare with me and thankfully never was put in the position where I had to attempt changing this at an event. I launched hundreds of times with a mid 11 second power on an ACT HDSS and it always held up great. I have a brand new clutchmasters twin disc for $1300 if anyone is interested. Those things drive like stock and held my big turbo no sweat.
