Default Clutch burn

i have a question i use to have a 2000 GS-R no matter how hard i drove it. The clutch would take a while for it to smell like it was burning. But on the S2k the clutch would smell like it was burning after a bit. i ask some other guy that had one and said that the stock clutch on the s2k sucks. i wonder if you guys have the same problem. also my car on had 16,000 on it.

i do not have any problems with my clutch (knock on wood). btw the clutch does not suck, its the weak pressure plate that doesn't grip hard enough. honda did this to cut back on the shock exerted on the drivetrain (like from hard shifting and clutch drops).
