Thanks for the help in advance! (:

Hello minipudd5 and welcome to BR-Z ownership and to ...... The Forum .....
As far as maintenance, just follow the maintenance schedule in the owners manual and always put in premium gasoline.
As far as the clutch ....... as they say in the old country ...... if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Some folks can burn up a clutch in 10,000 miles ...... others can make them last for a couple hundred thousand miles.
Some relatively common problems that may come up, is a wearing out of the throw out bearing (it will howl at you if it's not happy); some oil seepage at the bottom of the cam chain cover (you can usually see it); the cam plate cover (near the rear of the passenger side of the block) may start seeping.
Other than that, if you drive the car like it was designed to be driven (spirited driving in the twisties), it should serve you well.
IMHO, most people that are having major problems have been "messen" with the engine (E-85 fuel/tunes/forced induction/drastic suspension mods).
But, hey ....... I ain't no fun ......
