I just bought mine with 102k miles and the only things on my to-do list are spark plugs, valve job, and brakes!

I read your sig and honestly, I really don't keep a strict maintenance schedule. I've used full synth since about 10k miles and change the oil every 4k miles. For the first 100k I used Mobil 1 but later switched to Valvoline. Trans and diff get changed roughly twice a year with Redline MT90 in the trans and 75/90 in the diff.

As far as the clutch lasting this long, I did have the disk replaced at about 30k for the decel buzz tsb. Most of my mileage is freeway driving throughout the west coast. Basically I can hop on the freeway and drive 200+ miles without touching the clutch or brakes. Plus with the 4.77s I don't have to downshift to pass anyone.

Well despite my sig, it sounds like you change stuff more frequently then I do. I typically do my oil with syn oil every 5k miles and I do my tranny/diff every 15k miles or once a year, whatever comes first. It's basically been once a year everytime as I get about 15k miles per year.

I see what you mean about the clutch. I have 4.77's also. I only have 57k miles on my MY04 so far, the problem is I end up in a lot of stop and go traffic, even on the highway sometimes
