Most recommend a clutch replacement, but you can probably get away with your stock clutch as long as your on stock tires. If you race the car at the track with sticky tires forget it!

Im running just a few more pounds then you are, stock clutch lasted just about 10k miles or so on GY Tires. No track times no hard launches just some good ole street driving. I recently moved up to the Monster STG 3 and also got rid of the balding tires put on some R888's. IMO if you can afford it now and so on then go ahead and throw a new clutch in there of your choice or ride out the old one till it needs to be swapped out...all this obviously is dependant on your driving style.... hell stock clutch could last you a long time or could be smoked with in the first week!!

make sure to keep the clutch fluid changed out and if you replace the clutch put a remote bleeder in.
