Inspired by this thread, as Impreza clutches seems to have a reputation for not lasting very long, I thought I'd start a new thread to see who has managed to get the highest mileage from a clutch.

I'll start with my 1997 Turbo 2000 with 107,000 miles, still on the original clutch.

 

168,000 miles and still going strong !
That includes some trailer towing as well.
Standard UK MY00 turbo classic.

 

As I said in the other thread,98 turbo 2000,123,000 miles.....
It was mapped from standard (218bhp) to 278 with similar torque at 109,000
I must admit it never gets side stepped,ridden etc,always rolling before giving it the beans!

 

I have never changed a clutch on any car in 22 years of driving.

 

My classic is now on 214,000 miles on the original clutch !

 

2004 sti
360 ish hp
136,000 miles original clutch.
now sold and most parts stripped so not sure is she’s still on the road.

 

Is it a mk1 1.6GL?

 

Has the mk1 1.6 GL got a tougher clutch ?

Mines a standard MY2000 turbo, all original except for uprated brakes and suspension.
Oil, water, fuel pumps, exhaust etc are all 23 years old.

 

Couldn't give a mileage but we owned our 54 reg blob for 8 years and it never needed a clutch

 

That's because you don't keep them long enough. My MGB has had 2 clutches. One just after my dad bought it in 1980. I bought it from him in 1983 and it had another clutch a couple of years ago when I rebuilt the engine.

 

I’ve never had to change a clutch yet in any scooby I have owned , and that’s quite a few scoobies , the scooby as it’s a 2.5 lump when it’s been out for a re build at 93 k , I got the clutch done too as a sensible way to do things , but it still had lots of life in it 👍😂 , the only exception to clutch change was my monaro , it was upped by 100 bhp on a n/a engine and clutch was upgraded to take the power as old one was not coping well 👍😂

 

No less power do alot less stress on the clutch my guess.
