how durable is the rx8 clutch
i was just wondering how durable the clutch is. like what is the avg life of a rx8 clutch? the reason why im asking is because my girlfriend has been asking to learn how to drive a manual so she can drive my car from time to time. and personally i don't know if it is just me but i don't like anyone to drive my rx8 rather they know how to drive a stick or not.

Just make sure that she doesnt ride the clutch... should be fine.
i tought my GF how to drive stick and shes good at it now... but i dont let her drive my car anymore cause its no fun sitting in the passenger seat! I tought her just in case something happens to me and i cant drive

it's easy to burn up if you're reving to 2k and slowly releasing it.
I was used to the pro lite HD clutch, I pretty much released and it caught. Maybe 0.4 sec of slipping so it wasn't jerky.

ok thats good to know. she doesn't really have a problem riding the clutch but popping the clutch at low revs causing the engine and transmission to bulk. i normally don't hot rod the car much at take off. usually i will wait till i get in second gear to really push the car.
