Default Which clutch to buy?

Hi all as the title says. I will be aiming for the Andy forest level 3 power increase on a 2003 blob eye wrx and using a td05 18g. Not sure which clutch to go for, don't want to spend silly money maybe about the 300-350 mark. If anyone has any information it will be greatly appreciated.

Stuart

Hi, okay I seen that on the superhids website but I wasn't Suarez what the power capabilities of it were. That would be perfect price wise too:-)

an 18g will generally be capable of more like 350-370ish an would probably benefit from a "pink box" Exedy or similiar as SJ mentions above

plenty of deals available

As SJ says, the Exedy Racing pink box is capable of holding 400bhp and still drives nicely.

Available to buy online at the UK's best price: http://www.superhids.co.uk/clutches-...der-230mm.html

Just be careful when buying exedy that the company selling is not called 'techniclutch' I bought from them a few years ago.they are a terrible company with the most unhelpful rudest staff. They are cheap red copies with ill fitting rivets on friction plate,which falls apart and smashes to pieces when driving.

OK, but its very misleading as plenty of other official EXEDY suppliers (including ourselves) offer similiar if not better pricing - maybe they just dont do the online game very often............

State your price Alyn to compare for the 'pink' 5 speed.

It's not misleading in the slightest Alyn. It is the cheapest online price available in the UK.

Our prices are clearly stated on our website. It's impossible to track "telephone prices" as they can change with every phonecall.

In addition to the online prices we also have a price match to beat any competitor price in any case, so all bases covered.

Asked for advice on A S Performance post regarding Excedy clutches 2 days ago, no reply. I need one soon so I will use Aztec. Steve.
