There is no regular schedule for replacing a clutch, it all depends on your left foot. Wait till it starts slipping and don't worry, it won't go out all at once.

or do what i did and replace it cuz it was old and you wanted a newer one that would hold up to some of the performance mods that you had planned for summer time

when you do replace it tho, go for a centerforce II... great clutch and if you plan on making more power, it will hold up

can you tell a big difference bryant like holding power and stuff cuz i think mine loses a lot of power when i rip on it...i know you just did it but thats what i wanna get when mine goes plus i agree unless your doing performance mods then just wait till it starts slipping

i'd just stay stock then untill it starts going unless you really want one which if i had the money i would because i've heard lots of good things about centerforces and holding power and stuff

mine feels awesome and is just about broken in so i will let you know how it goes when i can finally get "on it" but so far it engages much better and locks better than the stock clutch... if i were you i would just wait it out but if you do decide to do all those performance mods, i would at least invest in getting one, as a weak clutch will do you no good if you are making much more power than stock...
