Awesome! I feel the same as you, as long as you maintain them they will last. Oh and not mash on the gas in low rpms. I have 12k on mine and not one issue. My STi I use to have on the other hand was a nightmare.

I just hit 53K on my 2014 GSR, still holding with stock clutch
Sorry to hear you're slipping at 105K, any ideas what clutch kit you'll get?

Yeah, and I leased it for the first two years (should have bought it straight away ) Had it since Jan 2014 so almost 3 years.
It's my daily car; about 40mi/day round trip for work. Random weekend driving up to Morristown, and occasionally as south as Philly. Farthest drive so far was to Boston in August.

Haha nice! Hope yours lasts for awhile!

I did a lot of research but because I'm stock, I figured anything past OEM would be overkill. Especially because future engine mods at most would be catback, intake, tune.

I ordered the Exedy OEM Replacement clutch

Did you do regular underbody washes at car washes or spray the underbody with any rust prevention spray?

I try to spray the underbody often. I wash my car more often during the winter than during the warmer seasons
