Default Clutch and flywheel replaced at 16k...

Soo.. just want to hear someone tell me how pathetic this is. Clutch started slipping a few thousand miles ago, went into the dealer, and.. she laughed at me. Brakes are gone too. :'(

How the hell did I kill the clutch that fast? It was my first stick car, I guess I tried (unsuccessfully) launching too many times..

Yeah, I would say so.

16K on the brakes is pretty bad, too.

I think you need to turn your driving insanity down a notch or two.

2006 and I just completed my third drag racing season. 48,000 miles and my transmission and clutch are fine. The brakes have never been touched.

Some 350Z drivers have bad luck.

Haha I think I just should have expected this would happen. Shouldn't have learned stick on a car like this. Oh well.
