There are loads of options depending on the fubds. Higgy
mic Posted April 13, 2008 Posted April 13, 2008 232bhp and the standard clutch cant take it? I'm 285bhp on mine and clutch is still going strong..?
johnnyr6 Posted April 13, 2008 Posted April 13, 2008 For 280bhp a standard clutch is fine, (unless you give it loads of abuse). If it was me, not looking for more than that, then i would get a slightly uprated one e.g. an exedy organic. Shouldn't be much expensive than a standard one. Johnny

Jimmy321 Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 (edited) I think my clutch is on the way out, the cars only just done 10k miles. Edited April 14, 2008 by Jimmy321
buffalo Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 **** me your motors done 10k and the clutch is gone!?! i wouldnt be replacing it till it truely gives up the ghost, pretty sure its nearly a grand for Subaru to fix it! IF your running 232bhp at the wheels what you running at the flywheel? cus for what its worth am around 300bhp/torque and the cars fine

I have a 1 year old WRX, my is standard 230bhp. I will be covered by warranty (i hope). It's booked for a service this week, will ask the garage thier oppinion.
b4z Posted April 15, 2008 Author Posted April 15, 2008 not sure what it is at fly prob around 300. a launched it at 5.5k and all a got was slip the clutch is only like 4k old

thewelsho Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Were you sitting on a flat at this point or a hill on the biting point? 340+ bhp and 400 torquey things 6 track days and standard clutch is still going strong! That is about the only thing I haven't broke. No doubt it'll go tomorrow
