Thanks for the clutch install Mao.

Thank you P.WRX for your continuous support. We have been flat out at work and I have been slow to update the threads, but will continue to try my best.

Below are recent Exedy Stage 2 clutch kits installed on a GD WRX and a P.WRX members Honda FN2.

Installation of Exedy Racing clutches also include machining the flywheel, new spigot and thrust bearings.

Managed to get some ex-stock out of Japan. Have 3sets of stage II for the 5spds and 2sets for the 6spds.

Evolution R has added 2 more clutches to our stockhold for the Subaru 6spd and 5spd. These are the Exedy Stage 1.5 Clutch Kit and Exedy Hyper Single Full Clutch Kit with Lightened Flywheel.

Introducing Exedy Stage 1.5 exclusive to Evolution R in Australia. The Exedy Stage 1.5 comes supplied with an uprated Exedy Pressure Plate, Exedy clutch plate and Exedy thrust bearing. All parts are made in Japan.

-The Exedy Stage 1.5 cushion plate is manufactured in Japan, incorporating both organic and ceramic plates.
-The Exedy Stage 1.5 is a hybrid of Stage 1 + 2, offering a stronger bite than both stages, while being less harsh on the gearbox due to its cushion design.
-This clutch kit offers more relaxed street driving than Stages 2 + 3, and is also suitable both for track and drag use.

The Exedy Stage 1.5 enables the driver to operate the clutch through an easy-to-feel half engagement thanks to the Ultra Fiber friction material all while having a high heat dissipation and torque capacity due to the integrated metal facing. Furthermore, pedal effort has been drastically reduced and improved by the re-engineering and re-designing of the engagement point with newly developed cushioning plates.




Exedy Stage 1.5 is exclusive only to Evolution R in Australia. P.WRX price - $750 supply only or $1150 installed.

Thank you P.WRX for your support.

-- P.WRX $1800 installed or $1250 supply.

The EXEDY Hyper Single Clutch has high torque capacity and a special lightweight design to reduce the clutch disc inertia.

LIGHT WEIGHT & LOW INERTIA DESIGN
- High friction coefficient, low wear, and a special heat resistant material (T5001) has been developed enabling clutch size to be reduced and have increased durability.
- Improved durability by strong small damper disc, especially re-designed for hyper single clutch.
- Disc inertia level is less than OEM clutch for improved shift response for fast gear changes, especially in racing applications.

DIAPHRAM SPRING TECHNOLOGY FOR LONG LIFE & HIGH EFFICIENCY
- Leading technology of clutch diaphragm spring and original design superior material using a special heat treatment process, which will result in a high durability level, and prevent heat deflection, loss of clamp load, and heavy pedal effort.
- Long life and improved clutch operation due to original design for hyper single clutch.

STRAP DRIVE TYPE PRESSURE PLATE FUNCTION
- Improved clutch disengagement. (Pressure plate is forcibly separated from facing surface by strap plate)
- Prevent no-disengagement problem caused by the heat deformation of pressure plate.
- Prevent the peculiar rattle noise of lug drive type clutch.

mao, im not sure im going to be able to get used to the shudder in the stage 1 clutch. I might sell and replace it.. What options do I have that will have an oem feel in terms of shuddering..?

I have a mate who has a heavy duty clutch in his 05 wrx. And i have drove it this morning with no shudder whatsoever. Also has a decent pedal feel. a bit heavier than stock but nothing crazy..

There are many clutches out there for the rex. Everyone claims to be heavy duty.

In your case, where you want something stronger but 'heel and toe' is not an option, then next step down in the Exedy range will be Exedy OEM replacement clutch.

Btw: Love your new wheels.

ahah thanks. I guess that is the way to go, I have pm'd you, awaiting reply
