Default Stock Clutch

I've always wondered how long a stock clutch will last in my car I bought it certified with 17K on it so i'm guessing Honda has somewhat checked the car out before certifying it.. I don't really shift it hard around town 3.5k to 4k to get into traffic and W.O.T shifts are a weekly thing not on a daily...I rev match usually when driving too can you guys gimmie some ideas thx -Anthony

I've got 94k on mine and it's not showing signs of giving up yet. I auto-xed the car religiously for three years too.

What brand stage 2 clutch was that? Doesn't sound like a very good one.

Slipping under WOT, trouble engaging gears are a few.
