I personally wouldn't because of the cost of labor. The exedy's have a fast wear rate and that one looks about 1/2 way done.

Yeah not worth it, the clutch looks pretty worn. Cost of labor to install clutch and then you have to replace this clutch alot sooner then a new one and then you have to install another clutch and pay more labor. Its not cost effective, and he car will have to in the shop twice so now car.

that doesn't look worn much at all. I have the same clutch in my car, the exedy hyper single, and i bought a brnad new disc thinking that the 2nd hand one was worn..
the orig one was almost the same thickness as the new one!.. and pretty much the same as the one in the pic

if you're interested, email me at jase.ko@gmail.com, and i'll send you the pictures I took of my new clutch disc compared to the old one (Claimed: 10,000km use)

Find out what the minimum thickness spec is for a stock disc, then compare it to that one. You might have engagement/slip issues if it's already too thin.
