Don't forget to mention the numerous people on here who experience non disengaging clutches of the TZ model. I can think of 5 people off the top of my head who posted here and had horrible issues with them...
The new higher end models seem to be extremely good though. Whatever pete has in his car ( DXD-F ) I believe is extremely nice. It engages way better than my Spec III+

Yeah I was gonna say, there's been a few horror stories about springs popping out.
Hey Matt, did you see that Rocco died? I remember going to meet you at that place way way back!
Pretty much family, so yes.. I got the call. I'm not even able to make the funeral. I am supposed to be driving back wed, but I can't. The pathfinder is in bad shape, and it's the career fair week. Added on top of my workload, I'm stuck here.
I saw him 3 weeks ago in the hospital, and he didn't even know who I was. Dimentia had already set in.
i'm going with an OEM since it is the cheapest and i'm not doing any upgrades within the next 2-3 years, oh, and to update you something new i found; the shop that i took my car to found that the reason it was slipping was because of oil leaking from the input shaft due to bad seal. They said that the clutch still had a decent amount of life left if it wasn't for the oil soaking it.

Is this the "rally" clutch? Thats the one I have, and it seems to be a great clutch so far. I believe it the stock disc w/ an upgraded pressure plate, therefore longevity should be the same as oem.
I'm runnig a SBC Rally (Stage 1) in my car. It's an upgraded pressure plate and disc. The disc it better than a stock one, they put a stock like lining on it that has more copper in it so it can take more heat and higher RPM. I would run one over a stock clutch.

i see no reason to spend money on an aftermarket clutch if your car is bone stock and staying that way. the stock clutches are really good, inexpensive, and can last 60k+ miles if treated right. mitsu designed the clutches to have a 20% margin (meaning it can hold 20% more than the rated TQ of the engine).

more like 100K if treated right... My stock one went out at 92k after being BPU for several months.
