i'm on stock clutch at 76k miles as of yesterday. been stage 2 since 53k miles and more mods progressively after that. helps the clutch resurface itself if you shift at about 3k and let off of it somewhat aggresively while daily driving. not too aggresively, just enough . thats what i do and it really really helps.

95% of it is in how you drive every day

Pretty much this^ I always let off the clutch quick even if it causes it to not be a perfectly smooth shift. And I always rev match when down shifting, and when I take off its never from above 1200-1300 rpms

Yeah I dont drive real hard usually. 53k miles, but it has definitely taken its fair share of abuse including 41 passes down the track.

Looks like I'm very late for this party, didn't see it until now. Just to clarify, I was not driving my car (just recently got a speed contest ticket). My clutch and Chad's (person driving) is completely different. He recently just got a whole new pedal assembly and clutch rod because his would grab as soon as your foot left the floor. You damn near had to stand on the pedal between shifts. My car has 90k on it now and the stock clutch doesn't hold worth a damn anymore. It wouldn't slip bad at this point, but it does with Chad driving. It slips REALLY bad with E though. The power is nice, but it isn't worth going out to try and run people at this point. This weekend Chad was shifting at 5k just so it wouldn't slip going into 3rd. A new clutch will hopefully be in the near future so we can have a rematch. It'll be interesting to see how it holds on the dyno and compare our numbers.
