could last another 5000km could last 50 000km, all depends on hows you have used it and how old the clutch is.

I've got the stock clutch in my 05 with 106,xxx k's on it, and its been through a "hard life", and I'll be looking at changing it soon, but in saying that,it's slipped only twice in the 20,xxx k's ive owned the car, and i've put it through alot, the stock clutches can take quite a bit i found, but that doesn't mean you should do 7k dumps at every light.

1. Dial up 7000rpm
2. Drop clutch
3. Wait 10 seconds.
4. See step 1

Repeat for 10kms. Clutch should be due for replacement.

got a MY01 bugeye, and still stock clutch with 113,700 on the clock, Its not slipping yet, but getting into reverse is becoming harder, took about 5 shots the other day...so due for replacement when it begins to slip. In saying that, save some cash and have it aside, and ONLY when the clutch starts to slip, replace it. Not worth spending the money now for a clutch you can still get another 30,000 km out of :P

Cheers

Brett
