Hi all, this is my 1st post so go easy on me!!

I own a 1999 UK Model Impreza WRX

I had my engine re-conditioned 800 miles ago after a big end failure (caused by a faulty air flow meter), shortly after I got it back it developed a clutch judder and now the clutch is starting to slip.
The garage where I had the work done (a local Subaru specialist) has quoted me £370 to supply and fit a new clutch of which £150 of this is labour.

I decided to have a look around on the net and found a company in America that will supply an Exedy clutch and racing flywheel for £242 plus shipping etc.
They reckon that the following will fit no problem :

So the question I need to ask is, do you all agree that this is correct?

Thanks in advance

Dave

 

Must say that looks a good deal.
Beware though that you might get stung for Customs duty and VAT on top of that.
There is a lot there for that money.
Reputable make too (Exeedy).

You might also call David at Welcome to the API website who does Exeedy and machined flywheels etc.
API are in Leamington Spa and are known to do While You Wait jobs.

Thanks for the response, I'll give them a call next week and get a price off them.

So just to confirm, that setup that I added a link for above is the correct one for my car?

Ta, Dave

 

ur gunna get hit with Customs duty and VAT ontop mate, and if the couriers pay it for you they will charge you for that too...just check up on it first!!!

 

Can anyone confirm that the clutch and flywheel in this link will fit my car??
