MCS R53 oil usage and clutch opinions

Hey all...

how often do you all with the R53 top up oil?

it's been 6500km's since our's service, has 70 000km's on the clock and the oil level shows it needs about a pint... i see NO oil leaks anywhere so i can only think it's "using" oil. this normal?
can it really be the rings at only 70 000kms for a 2006 model?


NEXT...
CLUTCH... it's been really really stiff since we got it at 63000kms and has slight creaking noises too, so we've known it needs to be done sometime...

but now it's whining sometimes when pulling off...

can i just get a LUK clutch? Valeo? or are there better options that still keep a soft pedal feel?

what do you guys use???

I will definitely weigh up the options with an ACT as i've had one before and loved it, but if it's ALOT more money and adds too much pedal stiffness then i'll stick with stock stuff.
