The clutch is a wear item like brakes. I don't think SOA will cover it so close to 36K miles. Be careful how much you upgrade the clutch. Think of it as a fuse...

DON'T put that copper button clutch in your RS! It may be well and fine for Jesse's 2.2 but the 2.5 will use that clutch to eat 2nd gear sometime when you...

Hey, I don't feel it necessary to have to rev-match on a synchro gearset as long as I have one. When I go half-dog then having a really strong clutch might be...
