At what mileage did you replace your Z's clutch??

Katana

I've got 30,000kms on mine but it's superchargered and putting down a lot of power so I'll probably be replacing the clutch before 100,000kms.

What are you trying to learn or determine from this? How long one lasts? I suspect most people have replaced them for performance reasons at some mileage way below the expected failure/wear limit.

What's the point? Weekend drag racing? Daily driver? Voluntary upgrade?

All of the above.

All based on driving habits. 04 with 48k miles and orig clutch (I slip too).

^^ Exactly, we could make a list a mile long with the factors that affect the clutch life. Without knowing that, the replacement mileage is meaningless.

38k miles. Have not replaced it yet. Still feels like new. I do drive pretty casually so I have no worries about it failing prematurely.

When I got my new motor put in (O/C issues) Nissan said that my clutch needed replacing very, very soon and as long as the motor was already out it would save me about $700 to do it now. The Z only had 21,000 miles on it and I dont always drive like a crazy person. I bought it used with 13,000 miles on it, I think the 1st owner must have been king street racer.

I should've worded it differently. I have an 2008 Z and should not be worrying about having to repair my clutch, but I guess I'm just paranoid and wanted to see how often people replace their clutch. I mainly drive my Z to school (freeway miles). Does the clutch get "looser" or does it remain pretty stiff after a couple months? I have a friend who owns a S2000 and his clutch is very easy to depress.

You'll probably get rid of the car long before you have to worry about a new clutch - unless you can't drive one properly and tear it up before its time.

I'm around 25k now and I want a new clutch and flywheel but I won't get them until the stock clutch is dead.

Give me a new Z and 30 minutes on a track and ill kill the clutch in a few....

Op, sounds like your worrying for nothing........so long as you can drive the car correctly and with it being a freeway daily driver.......you probably might not need to ever worry about it, or worry about it some years down the road..
