Exedy pink box clutch- brand new... And juddering...
Just had a brand new exedy pink box clutch installed into my 2003 5 speed wrx, alongside a lightened and skimmed standard flywheel... And sadly it has a horrible judder when taking up drive and when downshifting.
It was all put in by a reputable tuner so I'm not worried about any potential fitment issues, and I've done some searching and found this was quite a common issue a few years back. Apparently the exedy organic stage 1 just doesn't agree with lightened flywheels. I found various old threads all about it. For some people it just disappeared as the clutch ran in, but for others it didn't and they just gave up and changed the clutch again. But before I consider ripping it back out for another item I'm going to give it the benefit of the doubt to run in and see what happens.
Has anyone else had the same issue recently? And how did you end up resolving it?
Part numbers were:
Fc04t and fd08h. Clutch kit FK01H601
Cheers

I did see the H1 version but I was able to get the older H version for a good price. You live and learn eh
I've covered around 350 miles with it now and I can say that it does appear to be improving daily. I barely get any judder on downshift now, just a tiny wobble, and when pulling off in 1st and reverse it is still there, but is definitely getting better. Hopefully after another 300-400 miles and some slightly harder usage it will become hardly noticeable at all.
The pedal feel is still 100x better than my old tired clutch so I can deal with it- even daily.
