Default New clutch disc thickness?

Hi,

could someone please measure the thickness of a brand new or almost new clutch disc with a caliper gauge?

I can't find any info regarding this in the worshop manual.

The engine is currently out of the car and I am contemplating wheter it is worth to change the clutch or not.

Unless the clutch was abused you're going to get at least 100k miles out of it. Not likely that it needs to be replaced. Somebody had the same situation recently and said the clutch looked like new but replaced it since they ordered it. Hopefully someone will post the thickness.

A used clutch disc with around 8k miles is around 7,7mm.

Still hunting for the thickness of a new clutch disc.
