If you want to improve your clutch, put an extra plate in! A lot of us in the DD series did this last year. I presume you've bled and cleaned the clutch master cylinder and line as well, as this will help? You may also need to change to a braided clutch line as the oem rubber ones will be knackered by now and bulge under pressure, reducing the amount of fluid that engages the clutch.

If you drain the oil, take the clutch side cover off and give everything a good clean while you're there. You'll see milky gunk if the clutch seal is leaking into the engine casing, so you'll need to sort that too.
