Yes - WRX.
I went to the Exedy web site and came up with the following:
Clutch Kit - Organic (as you suggest)
- http://www.exedyusa.com/oe/15802
 
and the flywheel:
- http://www.exedyusa.com/oe/FF01
 
prices all seem to be the same regardless of distributor for a combined total of $1,020.00.
Dealer wanted $1,596 installed which included $257 for a new flywheel. Difference of $600 should be labor for my local mechanic ... and i'd get a better clutch and flywheel.
 
thanks,
david

Cool Cool and your local mechanic may not charge you $600 I'd be suprised if he did.

150,000 miles later and it appears that my '02 WRX might be needing a new clutch soon. While I'm at it, should I consider putting in a short throw shifter?

Even though they work together they're really completely separate jobs.
 
May as well, though.

Thanks for the reply, Yeah, I know they're separate issues, but one got me thinking about the other. Thanks again.

Turns out I'll need a new clutch and a new radiator. While they're at it, should I consider any other upgrades? I would prefer to stick with genuine Subaru parts, either OEM, SPT or STi.

#49 of 49 2007 WRX Limited needs clutch by larryk1152

Jun 24, 2011 (6:46 am)

I only have 45K miles on car and already need a new clutch. Dealer is pricey and indpendent mechanic says that Subaru clutches have issues not acknowledged by Subaru. He suggeststhat I get repalcement at www.fastwrx.com, but I have no clue what to get. I like speed, but do not want to affect daily driving adversely.
 
Any thoughts?
