I'm in the process of replaceing my gearbox and not long ago replaced my clutch.

I had a few problems when replaceing it with the spline in the centre of the clutch plate that connects to the box, I think the wrx one had one more tooth than the RA version?

Can someone confirm this for me please.

I don't want to really replace my clutch again as its less than a 1000 miles and want to keep costs to a minimum.

Jusr wondering what boxes will fit straight in other than the RA.

Sorry for the long thread people, hope someone can help me.

Thanks
Ian

 

Input shafts are the same as is the clutch.

 

I wonder which one I had then???

I ordered an Exedy clutch off ebay (pink box) told them the year etc and when it came to fit the clutch the the centre spline had 1 too many teeth or one too less.

I told the bloke who I was dealing with and he seemed to know what was wrong and replaced it with the correct one.

Do the splines differ in the later models then, or uk/JDM? Did I get a clutch from a later year.

Idealy I should get the RA box again which would go straight in but I was sick of the constent motorway noise and gear changes.
