Pulled the pressure plate and clutch. Looks a bit used up. I'm guessing those needle bearings laying there are what's left of the pilot bearing?

Here's the clutch disc. Has NKK stamped on it, along with a crown symbol. Is this a stock clutch? Shows a bit of wear, I'd say...

You're correct, that is whats left of your T/O bearing.

You mean pilot bearing, right? The throwout, or release bearing is on the clutch fork in the tranny. It's still intact.

Car only had 115k on it. I have a feeling some of those miles weren't easy ones.

I forget the general rule of pilot replacement but it's something ridiculous
