With proper care, the clutch can go forever on these cars. My Aero was wrecked at 260k with the original clutch. I think a stage 3 would be making pretty good torque, maybe close to 300 ft pnds, so that will have an effect esp if you drive hard. Drive until it starts slipping or the slave cylinder goes and check it then.
VR might be worth replacing. I cant remember if its easy or hard on the 9000. I've had a few go bad on my c900s but never on the 9000s.
