Your 3 year old car needs a clutch already?  How many miles are on it?

EDIT: To be more on topic, my guess is no.  We will wait to see if my guess is correct.

More importantly, did you ever figure out the issue with the synchros?

Anyway, I don't have an answer off hand, but I'm a whiz with google  :mrgreen:  What clucth kit do you have?
  Most manufacturers will list what cars the part is compatible with, if not in the documentation then somewhere online.  If you can't find it on google list the manufacturer and the part number here* and someone will be able to answer you better.


*Please refrain from following part numbers with excessive punctuation, including random spacing, or misspelling as this may skew the results.  Random emoticons placed mid-word will most assuredly break the entire boolean search system.  Characters such as hyphens and periods that may be contained within the part number as printed on the package should, of course, be included.

Good question.  Buy two clutch kits - one WRX and one NA and find out.  If the WRX pressure plate looks different than the NA and the mount holes are different, the answer is no.  If the mount holes are the same but the friction disc is a larger diameter than your NA flywheel's friction surface, the answer is no.

If it bolts on, has a little more pressure than the original NA clutch and is otherwise direct fit, fine.  I could see it as a decent upgrade. 

What he really needs is a three or four puck style solid hub clutch and an ultralight racing flywheel.  Sintered metal is the best for friction material.  Great power and your bearings and gear teeth love the solid engagement.

Hahahahahahahaha... And why doesn't he stick to the normal upgrade's any other normal N/A owner would do. Short Throw, Rims, Stereo. I mean if you do decent equipment and not ricer shit, you could make a N/A really nice. I love my N/A and all I have done is changed up my lights some, put on some RallyArmor's, and dropped in a $1000+ sound system. My $0.02.

Because he thinks he has a RALLLY CAR BRO! What he should do is realize that he drives a econobox that is no better then a corolla or civic; so stop thinking you have something special to make up for your parents not loving you enough as a kid. :cry: :cry:

He also needs to realize that if he continues to drive it like a rally car. This will happen...



or this...



or this...



... ... ...Not to mention how much abuse Rally cars get to begin with. You'll end up spending 1000's of mom and dad's money to keep it running... So drive safe.

Here's one
2005 Subaru Impreza 2.5rs wagon

1995 Subaru Brighton Rs (sold)
2002 Hyundai Accent (sold)
1999 Chevy Cavalier (sold to my brother)
1998 Subaru Legacy wagon (traded to Blackparis)
1997 Subaru Legacy (Parted out and crushed)
1999 Honda Civic (Wrecked)
Quote me now while I'm feeling good about it.  I've decided a WRX will be the vehicle that replaces the Jeep.  I can't see paying Evo prices or justifying purchasing a halfassed/beat to death example for the same asinine amount of money.  For an affordable, point to point, all-weather capable performance car, a wagon fits the bill.  A swapped wagon, even better.
