Just got my clutch out tonight for some troubleshooting. Checked all the friction plate thicknesses, everything is hovering around 2.98, though I did measure one spot locally on a plate that was about 2.90. Never saw anything else less than 2.96 though, so with spec being 2.7 to 3.0, I'm not worried.
I digress:
I have also noted significant wear on my pressure plate. There is a groove worn into the plate, about 0.85mm deep. The friction plate that fits against the pressure plate has obviously been wearing into it, but as long as I make sure to line up that same friction plate, it slides like butter around the pressure plate on this groove. Photos can be seen here:

So obviously they have been wearing together and still fit nice. Question is: Should I replace the pressure plate, or is it OK to wait until I need new friction plates?
