if you uprate your clutch big style you may run the risk of knackering the 'box.

clutches are cheaper to replace after all...


and if you uprate the 'box as well you'll knacker the diffs/shaft joints ??

only option..uprate EVERYTHING and rip holes in the queens highway !

Recent analysis suggest

Scoobymania - do an AP clutch rated to 350 bhp/350lbs/ft - also with lightened flywheel from MRT (5kg billet as opposed to 8kg cast standard)- about £900 fitted

PE - do an uprated Sti clutch with 28% increased clamping pressure with similar clutch pedal feel. I don't quite know where this comes from as I haven't seen it listed in any of the STi catalogues - again about £8-900 fitted.

Importers - Park Lane, GGR, etc do an STi paddle clutch, Group N, this is very, very strong, but as Training WRX point out, this is a bit on/off, although less harsh than the 22b twin plate ceramic jobby, and being a bit on/off it can seriously knacker your gearbox if you are not careful.

I will probably go the AP clutch from Scoobymania.

Cheers,

David
