WRX clutch


TRSCobra

Recommended Posts

I just bought a Spec stage 2+ clutch,OEM WRX flywheel, and TSK2 for my 05 LGT, but the throwout bearings look and operate COMPLETELY different. The Subaru dealer told me the TSK2 was the correct one for my early MY05 LGT, but I don't even see how it would work with this clutch, as the fingers are too far apart for the bearing to contact. OR is the TSK2 correct for my car and the WRX bearing not the correct one for my shift fork? I know the only real way to check would be to take the whole thing apart, but I want to have this done in one shot, since I'm renting the bay to work on my car.

 

Cliff's notes:

Will the 06-07 WRX TOB work with my early MY05 LGT clutch fork?

 

TSK2 on the left, Spec WRX TOB on the right.

Well, the clutch is in, just needs to be adjusted. The TSK3 was perfect with the exception of "sliding" the sleeve over the quill. I had to sand the crap out of it and eventually tap it with a hammer and brass punch. In retrospect, I would have used a piece of wood or plastic because the brass punch put small nicks on the end of the sleeve that I later had to sand down. Yes, I know you should only hammer on the shoulder, but getting a solid hit on the tiny shoulder is near impossible.

 

As for the clutch; the pedal effort is nothing compared to my stocker. I'd say less than half! It's releasing way high, (I'm about to adjust it) but is still driveable. I get a small amount of chatter if I release the clutch very slowly, but otherwise it feels close to stock. I also dropped down to a 15psi MAP for the 500 mile break in period.
