Progress Update : Clutch Replate Refurbish
After some hard driving, clutch kick, or maybe casual drive? I guess it's just wear and tear and its lifespan has come to an end.
Condition looks like new... cost around RM9xx including worksmanship price.
"Its" refers to my racing clutch. Currently using OS Giken Super Single. A little hard to drive compared to normal ones. Well I would say that you wont get any comfort as the gear shifting process is not smooth like stock ones, but that's what racing clutch do = To make sure the pressure plate applies pressure on the clutch plate to the flywheel as 'sticky' as possible
So I mentioned about the lifespan, it started to slip. First gear was alright, second to fifth gear if you apply a huge amount of load you can feel the engine rev goes higher but the wheels wont move faster / speed wont increase. Kinda like you're in Neutral gear and just let your car roll.
Instead I have to slowly accelerate to make sure the clutch plate and flywheel sticks with each other.
Here's a sample of how a worn clutch looks like... My friend's car, putting in first gear and release the clutch the car wont move nor will stall. Lols

Usually how long the normal clutch can last? I bought my car in 2011, 63k km travelled. I hope you can give me some advice.. thanks.
Depends. If you to whack or abuse it (like me) then definitely within a year or so. Normal drivers typically last for 100-200k km... very questionable.
