help please fellow scooby peeps
hi guys im new here , i have a few things i need to ask really so here goes,
i have a subaru classic 2000 wrx sti turbo and i need a clutch , which one please ?
5 speed manual
also how hard is it to change the clutch as iv heard from many people that u have to take engine out ?
do u have to have to skim the flywheel ?
also the rear arches have started to go ? whats the best way round this , maybe cut rust out and weld in new plate or grind it down and treat it then fill and spray ?

"i have a subaru classic 2000 wrx sti turbo and i need a clutch , which one please ?" - assuming standardish power then exedy is fine..

"also how hard is it to change the clutch as iv heard from many people that u have to take engine out ? " Engine out is easiest way, but yes it is time consuming although not massively technical.
"do u have to have to skim the flywheel ?" Highly likely yes, should be around £50 to skim so worth it for peace of mind
"also the rear arches have started to go ? whats the best way round this , maybe cut rust out and weld in new plate or grind it down and treat it then fill and spray ?" Cut out and weld. There are lots of threads on rear arch rust, invariably the inside of the arch is worse than the outer
"and last i dunno weather to have the car resprayed or have it wrapped in vinyl ?" The above may be quite a job in itself, maybe bite the bullet and respray whilst fixing the arches.

The arches are a well documented issue and are a nightmare. The main damage will be inside the arch as the sealant is porous and they rot from the inside out. A back street may charge a few hundred but a proper job is easily £1k+ if done to a high standard with new metal.

If you go to the expense of the arches, then push on with a respray but you will never get the money back unless it's a low mileage minter.
