There's not a lot of feeling with that clutch from what I remember

Update on my '11 WRX:
Basically I have a new clutch and was covered under basic warranty. The clutch now is much closer to feeling like a Honda clutch than what it has always felt like since new. It makes me think that there has always been an issue

Part list:
Disk compl clutch
CVR CP clutch
BRG clutch release
Flywheel AY flexible
Gasket
Gasket (CR)
Plate/Disc R&R

Glad it's fixed. Now you can get back to autocross and kick some more ***!

glad to see that, makes me wonder if the oem replacement is better than the original, both clutches on my 11 & 12 never felt great.

come to the meadowlands on 9/29 and feel the clutch. That's my next SCCA race. It's a 60 second course at speed. There are some serious cars and drivers with this group.

Oh yea, the bill that the dealership charged Subaru....$1220

so they deemed your clutch defective from the factory in some way?

You are so fortunate, my Honda dealer wouldn't even warranty a tire pressure sensor when it went bad.

come over to the darkside. We have plenty of room for you

 

[greg porter]

Nooooo. ET and Jill must remain in unassuming cars so that it's even more embarrassing when people have trouble keeping up

These are the motorcycles I hate running into the most. Even when they do stay in their lane, their tires are the only thing really in the lane as they clip the apex and most of the motorcycle is leaned over the double yellows. Then there are the ones (like the video) that actually cross over the double yellows at some points. Every once in a while I pass one and I'm amazed their heads don't get taken off by my car

awesome to see that video angle with the suspension travel. Scary to cross riders like that though
