Wrx 5 speed cluch. Which one should I run?

Looks like I should be getting a WRX trany this week end.
My question to you 5 speeders out there is what clutch should I run?
I see all kinds of different ones on ebay. Stage 1-5, racing clutchs.

I just want one that will work well and not brake the bank. My car has some basic mods on it. See my soundomain link for the full run down.

On my 6MT I just used the stock exedy set up. If I go froce fed in the future I'd prob. swap out but as it sits, the SVX's HP output is comperable to an WRX so there shouldn't be any issues.

I'm still running the stock WRX clutch. It won't slip unless you foolishly heat it up.

O, I thought some one said to use a stage 2 or something. So I should be ok with a stock replacement clutch.

If yours didn't come with a clutch (like mine) then go with stock or some form of stage 2. Remember that as clutch performance increases, ease of use decreases.

Sure. Also, don't forget about a flywheel. Do you already have something in mind for that?

you should be fine with that clutch if you're not drag racing or attempting a burnout.
more importantly... have the flywheel machined! a stock wrx one is fine.

Yes, I got a stock wrx flywheel on the way and a legacy mt drive shaft too.

I just need to find a mt starter and a master clutch.
I can't wait to drive my svx again.

Its not something I would need done right away. The trany that I'm getting is going to need some work. If you can doing it some time in the next couple months that would be ok.

I admit, I'm one of the bastard X-member hoarders... My bad Tom, I've had a box sitting in my garage just for the X-member and the other misc. items you called dibs on.
