How do you figure that? If the clutch isn't fully disengaged then the clutch will wear out faster too. So is there a fine line? I have had three stick cars and one is still kicking at 190k miles with the OEM 2001 clutch. Also my Z has 31K on it and that is all I am going to say about that.


Mine engages about 60% up and I hate the 1-2 shift. One of the biggest things I hate about our cars.
