Default Clutch advice !!!

Hi All


I think I may need a new clutch for my 05 plate STi Type UK Widetrack.


Noticed today in 5th and 6th gear lead up to a duel carriageway that the revs shot up to 6 7000rpm but no real speed, just high revving.


1. What's the best clutch to go for ? car is PPP 305 bhp


2. A rough idea of cost fitted ?


Cheers


Russ

You could have the best of both i.e. OEM flywheel machined. Mine is only at 7.5kg (11-12 std).
