Default What clutch for my WRX ??

Chaps looking to put an uprated clutch in my bugeye wagon, it's running about 260 at the mo but would like more next year so what do you recomend ? And who would you purchase off ?

Do flywheels need to be changed or do they tend to be pretty robust ??

If you want to future proof your clutch then I'd go for a pink box exedy unit, try AS performance or Aztec. Whilst it's apart you may well need your existing flywheel skimmed to make sure it's true or fit a lightweight unit if your feeling flush.

This one is good up to 300bhp: https://aztecperformance.com/clutche...ed-300bhp.html

This one is good up to 420bhp: https://aztecperformance.com/clutche...ti-judder.html

These are proving very popular at the moment also: https://aztecperformance.com/clutche...4-5-speed.html

You could probably get away with skimming your flywheel, but well worth upgrading to lightweight forged one (click "Buy Together" for package deal discount) for improved throttle response etc. One of the best things I did to my scoob.
