Remember one thing, yes the car only has 75k on it, but is still 14yrs old. Given rubber gets pretty funky with heat cycles and age, you wouldn’t want to replace all of the other components, then have your flywheel fail at some point. Mine is an 02 and when I have to do a clutch, the entire thing will get done... piece of mind, and time/mileage reset to zero on all of those components.
