you need to be careful replacing the torx bolts with the hex head bolts.

The hex head bolts DO NOT work with the Spec LWFW, at least on the 05 models. There was not enough room to get a socket on the bolt. I don't have thin walled sockets, but there was hardly any room and I don't think they would fit either.

$600 bucks or so should cover the install by a regular shop. I've seen some Subaru shops do it for $450 or so.

Doing it yourself is not a big deal, but it is time consuming, especially if you do it without help or without the proper tools.

If you're unsure, ask someone in your regional forum for help.

06 Spec B on 287 SB this afternoon. Had a SPT sticker on the trunk lid.

I missed it but the gf spotted a modded LGT near The Barrel Saloon in Albany Friday night.

America's armpit? that's all you've got?

All right...playtime over....Last thing i would want is for someones ride to get stolen. I woulndnt mind too much if it was the Champs.

I'm not sure why you think you're funny. You don't even have a car worth stealing.

Next time don't get all butt hurt when you make a noob post. I didn't flame you for it, I just told you it was too specific and the most specific you need to be.

I can understand that if an exact location was mentioned, but a driveway near the Roaring Brook School is far from exact. Not to mention most driveways in Chapp are 1/8 of a mile long.

Well dipshit...and I do mean dipshit, if you are able to see the car up a driveway, then any other car thief looking for it can see it too. Seeing how you always see it parked in the same driveway, it's safe to say the owner resides there.

It took all of 5 seconds to google the exact location you are talking about. If I were looking to steal a Spec B, I'd now have one hell of a lead.

Don't post specific locations where you see cars frequently parked.

Spec B in Chapp is good enough.

That spoiler is heinous!

The one on the black car looks like shit too!

I imagine that it only gets easier for a non-turbo 2.5i? Anything notably different in the steps besides ignore IC and turbo dodging? Can I reuse my tranny fluid if I replaced it only a few months ago with the good stuff? Also, I would love to add turbo kit but haven't done any research yet. I heard that going with a lighter (single mass) FW would give easier rev but might make it harder to maintain idle revs for steering etc. Is this an issue? I like to drive hard and would like more pep. Not sure how much work/$$ to add turbo but thought I'd gear this clutch job around that prospect. TOB is seized. Rule of thumb is replace FW or inspect and make call? Quoted ~$800 for stock parts and labor at a respected shop.

AFAIK, aside from the obvious, the only difference is the 2.5is have clips to clip the TOB to the fork.

You'll only lose trans fluid if you pull the axles. I lost about a quart when I did mine.

I have a LWFW and I would not recommend it for a DD due to noise issues.

negative. the rod is over the accelerator pedal. the wiring harness on the accelerator pedal should be removed and then you'll have better access to the adjustment rod

don't forget to plug the harness back in before you start the car

Another update from me. I installed the Spec 2+ clutch and had to use the return spring again.

I apparently misplaced the bracket I made in post #45, so all I did this time was put a worm gear hose clamp around the clutch master cylinder line and attached the spring to that. Works great.
