Default When to Replace Clutch?

I tried a search and didn't find to much info about when to replace the stock clutch.
My 2000 R has about 55k on it and has never been to the track...its daily driven and my clutch is starting to make a sloopy squooshy noise when engaged? I'm not a Tech so I'm not sure what needs to be replaced or what brand to go with. I'm happy with the stock feel. Can anyone helpout a Clueless R owner

sounds like you might have a hydraulic problem. the slave or master cylinder may be going out.

i had a similar problem with my accord. i was leaking fluid at the slave cylinder. i replaced the slave and all problems are gone, welll i also had a slipping clutch too.
so anyway, with only 55k i doubt you have a bad clutch. check the slave cylinder and see if there is a fluid leak. you might also need to flush your MC?

a clutch is not that hard to do, its a piece of cake.
Hey D, if you know how to adjust valves and rebuild heads, let me know, I am in dire need of a valve adjustment
