A clutch should last more than two years...depending on mileage. Is your car stock?

just get a good stock replacement. no need for a performance clutch. Make sure it is an all NEW clutch and not with remanufactured parts.

Try Southbendclutch.com That's what ive got in my Mx, It grips very good. much better then stock and will last longer . and stills has a smooth / quiet engagement. Best of all the kit is cheaper then stock.
