Maybe a Supra GTS 2023 MT, Kia Stonic GT, Mazda CX5 GT SP
I don’t think it would damage the clutch beyond repair, those dual disk clutches are designed to be abused.

just out of curiosity, does your clutch pilot bearing make a lot of noise at idle in neutral?
Pilot bearing? The bearing in the end of the crank that supports the front of the input shaft? How would you distinguish any sound due to wear or failure between it and the clutch throwout/release bearing? Clutch shudder is the usual indication of a bad/failed pilot bearing.

Race clutches usually make noise at lower rpm’s, more noticeably at idle. At least that’s what I’ve noticed from every car I’ve been around that has one.

Bringing this thread back after a few years to reassess the issue for model year 24 and beyond. This thread died quickly after 46 pages in 2023.

All years still have shit stock clutches. If you modify the car, and run e. Change it.

Don't get a hydraulic release bearing if you do.
