Welcome. There are 2 reasons why mine is named “My B!tch” 1. She can be a need B sometimes and 2. The wife says it gets more attention than her 😉
Pay close attention to that engine. Lots of info on the N14 engine in the Gen 2 section.
1st time with a clutch: Some hard fast rules for getting the most mileage out the plate and TO bearing.
1. Foot OFF the pedal except when shifting
2. At all stops, shift to neutral and foot OFF the pedal.
3. Do a little research and learn how to rev match when down shifting.
If you decide to do any mods, THE best bang for the buck is a set of KONI Special Active (ex FSD) and a heavier adjustable RSB.
