GTDriver Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Need a new clutch for a 08 stage 2(installing in the spring) DD with occasional autoX use. What should I get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTDriver Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 Please don't flame me for putting yet another thread like is I searched and couldn't find if the 08's clutch/flywheel combo's were the same as 05-07. Should the standard 06 wrx flywheel and act street clutch be my best bet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolksey85 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 http://fastwrx.com/actheclforle.html This just states 05+ LGT so I assume they're all the same, minus the LGT B cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABPillinois Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I've had really good luck with my ACT street clutch and 06+ WRX flywheel. FWIW mine went at 38k miles and I've been driving mt cars for nearly 10 years. :rolleyes:"All right, brain, I don't like you and you don't like me - so let's just do this and I'll get back to killing you with beer."

GTDriver Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 I have never lanched the car and 99% of that is hwy. I put 100000km on my last car before I sold it and I never had a problem with the clutch. The car was chirping when the clutch was out so I brought it in they didn't know what it was waited a week to here from subaru brought it back in they opened her up and the clutch, pessure plate and TOB were toast. They say the flywheel is ok but there is burn marks on it. They said they would pay for labor and the TOB. I'm still pissed thou. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaskajoel Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 That's exactly what happened to me today - I'm grateful they replaced my TOB and paid the labor but i still gotta find a clutch:mad:Â (FWIW i bought an OEM clutch disc and pressure plate from subarugenuineparts.com for just over 225) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTDriver Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 Think I should replace the flywheel well its open or should I just go OEM and leave the flywheel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodyItaliano Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 after buying mine used, i replaced the ACT clutch with OEM subaru parts. doesnt deal well with "power shifting" though. not with more than stock power put to it. so next clutch is going to be a SPEC. that would be one of the highest quality clutches available. thats what we put in our old porsches years back. they arent cheaply priced, but can handle major upgrades and abuse.

ABPillinois Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 nearly identical to stock or even a little lighter pedal feel. It holds like crazy. :rolleyes:"All right, brain, I don't like you and you don't like me - so let's just do this and I'll get back to killing you with beer."

mattg Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 nearly identical to stock or even a little lighter pedal feel. It holds like crazy. what about the feel of the WRX flywheel compared to the factory dual mass? is it a big difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABPillinois Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 not really much different, a little chatter when it was new. :rolleyes:"All right, brain, I don't like you and you don't like me - so let's just do this and I'll get back to killing you with beer."
