Clutch Flywheel Question - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

renoguy20 · 2009-11-12, 10:59 AM

Anyone using the ACT WRX Street Clutch/Streetlite Flywheel Combo? Any CEL's? I am still on stock clutch and I believe its nearing the end (pedal almost all the way up for connection). Was thinking about this combo as a replacement. Thoughts?

Also, Is it hard to change the clutch (05 Wrx)? I have most all tools, including air, jackstands, ect.

Define "hard to change". For some people around here, it's a ten hour, bleeding, swearing, throwing things kind of ordeal. For others, it's a two hour, in-n-out, done-and-done kind of job. How mechanically inclined are you? What kind of experience with heavy line work do you have?

I have the ACT Streetlite paired with Exedy Stage 1 Organic (basically OEM) and it's fine. I've never gotten a CEL from it. The only noticeable benefit is basically just a faster rev match at the expense of some deceleration noise.

I have Pulled a 90's 22re motor sent out for rebuild and did clutch before reinstalling, Also have done a clutch on a mitsubishi mighty max. But I didn't have to pull half-shafts for either of these cars. I would like it to be a two hour job, but that prob won't be the case.
