What's the most/least miles anyones had out of a standard clutch ?

BHPower -
Miles -
Abuse - on a scale of 1-10 (gentle-dragstrip)

Cheers,

114K and still going on the original clutch

Abuse = 3-4

BHP 215

 

55k miles on my original clutch, replaced when 4th gear syncro had to be changed under warranty...probably still had another 20k miles to ago.

Power/Torque (Torque being the real clutch killer) grew from 220/225 to 250/260 during it's life and abuse would be around the 7-8 region

 

A useful comparison for those interested.

Ap 4 paddle clutch
Power 400-550hp
9000 Miles with plenty of life left.
Off the abuse scale
Off the judder scale

 

how can you tell the clutch is on the way out-isit the bite point rises or revs not dropping on dipping clutch?

Revs rising faster than they should in a high gear for the given speed, sort of like inverse wheel spin usually accompanied by the smell of cooked clutch!

 

300 ish/ similar torque
32k miles
Abuse....id say an 8, its done 2 full trackdays and 25+ hard drag launches.

still not juddering or slipping at all.....which im at a loss as to why not!!

114k on the original clutch

 

93k on first clutch, decatted Bug Eye, abuse 3/4.

 

Brought 02WRX with 17k on clock, form Subaru who introduced me to the previous owner, Middle age guy who just didnt rag it.

Car in Extreme @20k having clutch/flywheel replaced.

I now realise Scoobies are not built to spin off the lights.

 

did you have the car from new?

 

Yeah, but I am old and drive a wagon!

 

Original clutch lasted to 124,000miles.. was definitly the original..

abuse then was about a 6 and power about 260-270bhp.

Replaced with a Borg and Beck and since put another 40,000miles on it with an abuse of about 8, it has been up the strip about 10times.. but I do have some mechanical sympathy.
oh and power is around 320-350bhp since that clutch went in.

BHPower - 406 BHP
Miles - 30000
Abuse - 6

Pulled out and still OK at 30000 miles. Not all of those miles were at that power, but the last 15000 were quite reasonable.

>400 lbft with 2.5 with 240mm (6 speed) RCMS/AP organic. First plate did 14000 miles and had oil contamination when it was removed and sat in a pool of oil. Second one is at about the same no problems. Heavy clutch pedal but very smooth and progressive, no judder.

 

Clutch changed at 30k before i got it. it now has 96k on the clock. abuse 5-8 depending on mood. my98 uk turbo 208bhp.
i smell the clutch a lot, especially when driving hard or when it is cold, is this a sign that its on the way out. its not over revving or anything.

 

MY00 - 3 in 30k miles - major judder from new
Drove 100miles (M3, M25, A1M) each way per day for 9 months
Then had a JDM MY95 for 30k never replaced the clutch, but it was on it's way out at the end

Not a hard driver, just 'press on' when safe

 

Changed at 70K car was standard until 61K.
When upgraded, Started to slip on boost at 70K so changed to exeedy
Now 260ish BHP
Never juddered and owned from new (must be one of a very few)
My99 UK turbo

 

what is a rough cost of having a clutch fitted
