Yup, just go with the OEM again. Why put a strong clutch on it?

i heard of some ppl going with the sti oem. do you know if that would work or even fit. and you have any clue how much a new clutch is gonna run me
i just want something strong that will last something i can beat on and not have to worry about replacing another
With the bug eye, you want the clutch to be the weak point in the drive line, not the trans itself, go with OEM.Originally Posted by vr4drivin
It does not work, WRX/STI clutches are different P/Ns
The stronger a clutch, the harder it is on the transmission. A clutch is cheaper to replace than a transmission.
You should be buying the "weakest" clutch with proper torque capacity. Likely, an OE replacement or Exedy Organic clutch would be adequate. You also need to factor in the cost of a new flywheel.

I had put a Centerforce dual friction Kevlar clutch in my Tacoma 4x4 10 years ago. I loved it, but that was also a whole different vehicle.

Why are you beating on your clutch to start with?

anyone been thru the dealer for a full clutch replace, how much was it.
Should i replace the flywheel at the same time?
There's usually no need to replace the flywheel, if the clutch was chattering or was overheated you can usually just get it resurfaced. If it wasn't chattering, I would just replace the clutch, pressure plate, and bearing
got the new clutch in, very different from befor, it takes alomost no force to push petal in. Is this normal. oem was put in.
