Do you hear any noises when your clutch is fully pressed to the floor when you are sitting at a stop light?
Another part of interest to look at is the “snout” that the TOB sits on. I think it’s connected to the Transmission input shaft bearing, and if that’s out of whack that could cause TOB wear, but you’d hear it rattling around in neutral...
Good luck though, I’m at 155k miles and on my 2nd Exedy clutch. OEM lasted 70k until failure/explosion, and I replaced my replacement Exedy clutch at 130k because I was hearing noises and just didn’t want to deal with another failure. My current Exedy setup has the updated TOB and Verus clutch fork and things have been great so far.

I don’t actually get any noise with the clutch fully pressed in, or fully out for that matter. The noise is the squeak while the clutch pedal is in motion. That and there’s a significant resistance pressing the pedal, and also a bit less noticeably so while releasing that corresponds with the squeak. I think maybe the snout got scored from the original bearing and the grease has worn off, because I did not replace that part the first time the transmission was dropped.
When you did the clutch did you also replace the flywheel? Would you say the Exedy clutch introduces a bit more vibration than the stock OEM clutch?
