Well for what it's worth, I replaced a clutch at about 90k in my 1998 Subaru Outback Sport and when I got rid of the car at 140k miles, it was slipping again. Contrast that to my 1988 Toyoto Corolla which never needed a new clutch in ten years and 230k miles. The clutch in the Corolla was sloppy while the clutch in the Subaru grabbed quick and was precise. Wonder if the type of clutch makes a difference.

My Turbo Fit now is still holding, just not when I change from first to second (rarely). That's only because the increase in power. I have 26k miles and 8k miles on the turbo. Clutch still feels good.
