Default New clutch...new car.

Got the car back from the garage with an excedy organic clutch and the change is massive. The car pulls real strong throughout the entire rev band and feels so much more responsive. The original clutch lasted longer than it really should have (wrx standard clutch - 30k miles - @312bhp) however the new clutch really has made a world of difference.

Drivability is still good apart from slight judder during this bedding in process.

Big thanks to Alyn at ASP for the quick delivery and Penninne Subaru for an excellent friendly service.

How long do clutches normally last? Also, isn't that an STI then?

It all depends on the driver and how you drive, obviously if your launching the car whenever possible the clutch wont last too long, alternatively if you drive under boost all the time it will probably last you a life time...general drving i would say 30kmiles would be good.

It's not an STi, but with the mods it easily outperfroms a standard sti in every department
