06 WRX bearing issues
Do any 06 WRX owners have problems with the throw out bearings? I just recently upgraded my clutch with an ACT street clutch and street light flywheel. I had it installed and two weeks later i started hearing the chatter of the bearing. Went back to the shop and they replaced it with a new bearing for no extra charge. I've now had the car for a couple days since the install and I'm getting the chatter again. I know for sure its the bearing but I was just wondering if anybody had the same experiance or if anybody has an idea what can by causing the repetition of this incident? Any Help or input is greatly appreciated.

Update: Now the noise has gotten worse and i can hear it all the way up through third gear. It still goes away when i put the clutch in though. Please some body help me out. I'm so F@#*ing frustrated.
I don't know what to do. What makes it worse is i don't really have money laying around or alse i'd swap for the 6 speed.

might as well get used to the flywheel making a **** ton of noises.
Mine does the same. Hear it at idle but goes away when depressed. A lot of other people with lightened flywheels will tell you the same.
But since you have a 5 speed I would still look at the TOB since its not connected to the clutch like the 6 speed versions....Which of course the shop could have just forgot about it when they pulled the tranny.
