Part #: FJK1001 - HD - O. Engineered for HP modifications, this heavy - duty pressure plate boosts the clamp load with minimal increase in pedal pressure. The organic disc material, rich in metal, doubles the coefficient of friction compared to stock linings and enhances rotational strength up to a 12,000 RPM burst point. It offers a stock - like feel along with excellent strength and durability. Ideal for daily driving, street use, and moderate racing. Torque Rating (at crank): 315 Ft - Lb. Fitment: Subaru made a mid - year production change starting at VIN # J*806877. This clutch kit is only for 2015 - 2018 models. 2018 1/2 and newer models need a different clutch kit and they're not interchangeable. For 2015 - 2018 models, a flywheel is required for installation. SBC offers part number SBCSUB1001, or you can get a flywheel from Subaru for a 06 - 14 2.5L turbo WRX.
Using this South Bend Clutch Stage 2 Clutch Kit is straightforward. First, make sure you have the right flywheel for your 2015 - 2018 Subaru WRX. You can either use the one SBC offers (part number SBCSUB1001) or source one from Subaru for a 06 - 14 2.5L turbo WRX. When installing, follow the standard installation procedures for clutch kits. This clutch kit is great for daily driving, street use, and moderate racing. During use, you'll notice a stock - like feel, but with much better performance. As for maintenance, check the clutch regularly for any signs of wear. If you start to feel a change in pedal pressure or a decrease in performance, it might be time for an inspection. Also, avoid sudden, extreme RPM bursts beyond the 12,000 RPM limit as it could damage the clutch.
