Slipping clutch = new clutch?

Slipping clutch = new clutch?
Hi all, i have a MY2003 WRX and the clutch has been slipping badly in the last weeks, especially around and after the 3.500 rpm mark.
My question is.... do i need to change the whole clutch (plate etc...) or just changing the clutch disc is enough?
Any suggestions on what clutch to get (price/quality wise)?
I don't need anything fancy, since i give the car a regular street use.
Thanks in advance for any help

I have about 43.000 miles on the WRX.
Is this a normal mileage for changing the clutch?
I could try that "cleaning" method, but my fear is to completely kill the clutch before i can drop the car at the garage

Yes, you're right. I bought it pre-used about 2,5 years ago.
And like i was thinking, 43k miles should be "normal" in these cars.
Oh well.....
So, where can i order a good (but not expensive) clutch kit for a MY 2003, online?

Two this to consider
1) it may not be clutch (but highly likely)
2) if slipping bad with subaru power doesn't take to long to **** a flywheel. So £250- 350 for renew or £60-100 for skimming
reason for 1) It's rare but see here EXEDY Clutch Europe Ltd - Sports Clutch basically "C" clips can come off drive shafts and you get 3 wheel drive and not clutch slip

Thanks T5.
That's a possibility.
I read the pdf you posted on your thread, and that can be my problem. Like i said the slipping only occurs around and after the 3.5 K RPM mark
