clutches for 5-speed

Ive been doing some reading and planning for my 5 speed swap and was just curious what clutch setups people are going with?
If it works out I will be swapping a 5 speed from a 93 legacy into my FWD 94 svx and probably going with a stage 2 exedy clutch cause from what ive heard and read if I go with something less it will slip like crazy. So post up what you guys have used thanks!

Re: clutches for 5-speed

I have a SPEC Stage 2+ in mine and it holds great. No slippage or anything.

Re: clutches for 5-speed

see I was thinking about going with an exedy stage 1 clutch because I had one in my wrx that had 300ft lbs of torque and it didn't slip but from what ive read and heard I should go with a stage 2 which will also be an exedy stage 2. What trans did you use?

I had an F1 Racing stage 1 (thought it was stage 2, guess not)

but it is currently being replaced with a Competition Clutch stage 2.

The F1 was not a terrible clutch, then again this is the first manual car I've owned.

Re: clutches for 5-speed

On my 96 leggy tranny setup I have a Spec stage 2 clutch.

They're made by the exact same people as the exedy clutches, for slightly lower price...
It does not slip but I am not overly impressed by the feel. However, I know Subarus are not known for solid feeling clutch setups, so I don't think this is the fault of the Spec clutch.

Aaron, my buddy let me know yesterday that the car is still there. So it looks like it won't be a problem at all but I'll know for sure when I'm actually down there.
