    Life of a Stock CLutch Show your mileage.

    Hey guys/gals. I was wondering what's the life of a stock clutch? mention mileage when you started noticing any slippage or POWAAH MOds that caused premature failure. Also is it normal for a lil grinding on cold start driving from 1st to 2nd gear? I have an 06 MR with 13,343 miles and have just started to notice a lil grind on cold driving. ive driven the car normally, no track use, hard launch, redline shifting on occasions. Tell your stories.

    you know the grinding is when i take off from 1st to 2nd definitely after start up...its more like notchiness...but i do feel the synchros...on low rpms under 3k. but if i drive a bit hard no notching at all...its weird cause i've heard MR's are smooth as butter...i think ill take it in.

    Re: Life of a Stock CLutch Show your mileage.

    I got 60K out of my OEM clutch...a few launches...uncountable canyon runs and about 30 track days..I'm at around 76K now with another OEM clutch..tranny is getting notchy now when its cold but its smooth once its warm...I just drive him (my Evo) gently till his old bones get warmed up... I'm at 360hp/350tq or 320hp/312tq depending on who's dyno my car is on
