Clutch is finally starting to slip

Clutch is finally starting to slip
At first I thought my foot slipped but its defiantly starting to slip at high revs.
I'm hoping to get as long as possible out of it as I'm thinking while the engine is out I should get a few.other things done, Parallel fuel rails for one.
I'd like a 7kg flywheel as its for daily use with endless stop start so don't it stalling all over the place. I'd also like a clutch with 6 springs over 4 after seeing the exedy video.
Are these 2 items correct for my jdm 2005 hawkeye?
Ill happily buy a packaged deal from any supplier but still want 7kg & 6 spring clutch.

You don't need the engine out to do the rails. I'd change out the flywheel for a more reputable brand. Competition do one for less than 400 at that weight, have one in mine with a stage 4 clutch, bit of an on/off button but works well and feels good

If doing it at home without a lift and gearbox jack engine out must be 10x easier, surely?
Even fitting a box to an empty chassis at home was a PITA, let alone trying to get it to mate up with an engine at the same time 😰
with a proper lift, probably a different story

I have to agree with the above as well, unless you are planning big power, the stage 1 clutch is a ball ache to live with as a daily by all accounts. A mate of mine has an 04 WRX and went stage 1 and he wishes he never did, he is even thinking about swapping it back out as he is a mechanic and he doesn't have to pay for the labour.

have used and supplied various Exedy products for years and never really have any issues apart from the very early 5spd uprated kits which were notorious for transmission vibration..........
the 6spd in particular doesn't tend to have these issues and both the std factory fit style and the lightly uprated 'pink box' are easily capable of being used in "daily's"

Thank you all for your input, it's appreciated.
I'm of the mind set of when replacing something replace it with the option to go big power if required.
If I'm paying out to have a clutch fitted u may as well upgrade the flywheel so that if I want, or future owners want to chase power it's another thing that's already done.
I'm considering the exedy clutch and flywheel package (4 spring) as I think it'll be easier to source from one shop but it's all about saving as much £££ as I can while upgrading.
Euros look like the cheapest option but its ensuring I buy the correct package.

have You link to euro clutch? when i put 05 sti reg they claim there is no clutch in stock for it
pink is rated to 320-330lb ft
cg motorsport 380 lb ft
cc stage 2 not sure 500 but it is kevlar not really good
act sb10 hdss m1 over 520 lb ft - need to use oem subaru pilot bearing
xtreme clutch stage 1 420 lb ft - to expensive
for me 2nd if comes with 7kg flywheel or act- 200 quid price difference
could be tempted with pink from euro for £330 if true + flywheel costs
otherwise price will be similar to 2nd option

6spd 'pink box' will cope with far more than early 300ft/lbs of torque?? even std 2.5's make that sort of figure.............
be amazed if Euro's or Lateral offer the best pricing.......
