Is it worth it if yours is ok, i would get a second opinion first.

Yeah it isn't slipping but the clutch is high and it will probably go soonish if not right now. With other expenses (like an induction kit etc ) I still need to save for the clutch so i'm gonna be prepared so it doesnt hit me in 1 go, best to be prepared.

Not going to do anything right now except buy one in advance on next paycheck i reckon...

Breaking news, every S i have driven has a high bite, you are prob not looking at a replacement, i have done mine and its is still at the top, so i wouldnt worry. just take it out on the peddle, if it aint broke wait till it is

Oh and the OEM clutch is good for at least 300bhp at the wheels, its only the pressure plate that gives up the ghost!! most of us FI'd boys would stick to stock clutch and just run a stiffer PP
