Same here. As expected, perfect fit on the sideskirts as we'll. Requires some drilling, but it comes with a paper template to ensure perfection. :-)

Oh, and new clutch...so pretty, oh so pretty...

**Asharus** · 02-13-2013 10:47 AM

what clutch did you go with? i think my clutch slipped the other day. i was making a pass at around 60MPH in 5th, plus it was slightly uphill. i heard/saw the RPMs go up and immediately back down. my clutch has 45k ish miles, stage 1 since 5k and stage 2 since 30k

Most likely the clutch. I would be willing to bet on it. I went with the ACT HD Street, and L-O-V-E it. Here's a link to it - ACT Heavy Duty Performance Street Disc Clutch Kit Subaru Models (inc. 2006-2013 WRX / 2005-2009 Legacy GT) at RallySportDirect.com

Did you run a different flywheel when you changed the clutch

**Asharus** · 02-13-2013 11:16 AM

Nah, I've heard mixed reviews on the daily drivability of the lighter flywheel. Quick RPM drops, some stalling, etc. Ain't nobody got time for that!

Its night and day different in terms of how it grips. The first time I went through a few gears WOT, I knew why I needed it. It is noticeably more firm/sprung, and the engagement is shorter, so it just takes some getting used to.

great, lookin forward to putting one in sometime soon.

Matte black roof overlay goes on this week. I'm usually not a fan of vinyl overlays in general, but I think it'll work with this car. I'll post pics when it's done.

This sounds like it will look good, especially with the white and black theme you've got going.
