Hey guys....for some reason my stock clutch on my 96 with 91,000 miles is still holding strong. I've pretty much granny drive it around when Im not racing..but this thing has seen many a downshifts, and clutch drops. I've been running Nitrous for the last couple of months..about 5 or 6 bottles full and its still going strong. chirps 1st to 2nd with my 17's NA. and I've even chirped a third to 4th on the freeway with the Nitrous. No slippage..even using the Nitrous in first gear...Clutch is holding it...wierd huh? Anybody else experience a stock clutch holding that well? As for mods..CAI, Stillen 4-1 header, Greddy Exhaust, and the Zex 50 shot. Oh yeah and a BB Intake Cam. Car gets mid to upper 90 mph trap speeds on the nitrous..(won't talk about the 1/4 time..2.5 60fts don't help much..lol) If the stocker can take handle this well..I wonder what the car will do with a aftermarket with more clamping power and bumping the pill to a 75 shot...he,he,he

My stock clutch is ok. It slip's every once in awhile in the rain if I've been beating on it, but it always comes back.

Original Clutch made it to 126,000 miles and bested a 15.89 1/4 mile with 113,000+ miles on it and bald tires w/exposed steel belts.

Don't ask. I didn't know until I got home that night.
There was no pressure plate left. Only the pop rivets. And they were almost torn through as well. Broke the forks in the tranny and destroyed it. Had to replace the tranny and finally got a new clutch at the same time.

I would suggest you replace the clutch around 100,000 miles just to be on the safe side. I have sold the NX since then and the new owner ran a 15.5 1/4 mile with 128,000+ miles on the odometer, H-rated street tires, and the new clutch and tranny.

I had to replace my clutch at 125,000, and I know I drive it hard, and I am pretty sure it was driven hard before I had it. When I replaced it, my not so friendly local Speedshop couldnt find a aftermarket clucth, I and I had trouble too. This is before I knew about this site!

I replaced mine at about 20k, and it was slipping on cruise control.

Does anyone know what this trick is where you put washers in some black plastic thing to solve cluch problems?
