If anyone can help me out, looking on buying New clutch kit and was wondering what brand to go with since I'm hearing different opinions. I'm looking at south bend stage 1 clutches at the moment. Any inputs?

I have the southbend stage 1 with the oem flywheel. No complaints, and I drive from Waipio to town everyday.

Something's to consider is your application for the clutch. What are you using it for? Daily driving, autocross, tracking, a mix; all this matters.

Also, what are your current power numbers? What are your projected power numbers? This is also very important when choosing a clutch.

I personally have the ACT Heavy Duty Performance Street Disc Clutch with their 15lbs lightweight flywheel and absolutely love.

I wouldn't suggest anything anything stronger than OEM for the 02-03 wrx transmission.

If you make too much power for an OEM clutch to hold you are definitely making too much power for your weak@ss transmission.

Would you rather your clutch slip a little or rebuild your transmission?

But what would I know...I'm only a technician with 15 years of experience that has broken and repaired many subaru transmissions
