85k miles, anyone with NIB clutch please read

I think a lot of people here don't attempt to do their own clutch job...
I've got a new clutch in my basement, but it's for a 2.3 and far from stock materials, so it's no help to you.
It sounds like your clutch still has plenty of life and could go another 30k+ miles, but do you really want to drop the transmission again in 30k miles? If you replace it now and can get another 85k miles out of the new clutch, then the car will have 170k miles by then, ie you won't have to worry about it for a very long time . I'd say just replace it, because you already have everything apart.

30K miles for me is ~5 years of driving, so I think I will be okay.

Yea but if you did replace then you would be looking at 15-20 years before it would need another......
