I got a clutch from www.importcarparts.co.uk for about £170. I had it fitted locally (a fair way from London) for £100.

The clutch has been very good for the past 3k miles, and is more than adiquate for standard power on my UK MY96, so could be OK for your WRX. I thought it a bargain, and so far it's working out that way...

Of course, if your car is producing more than standard power, then you should go for an uprated clutch.

Petrol head - was your question aimed at me? If so, then yes it got a new thrust bearing as well.

(It was a clutch kit - was told it was the best way to go.)
