wrx clutch in a legacy?

Post by s1d3way »

hello i just picked up a 94 legacy ss. unfortunately it needs a new clutch. it sounds like the wrx clutch will bolt on but i would like someone to confirm this for me. i assume i need a flywheel from a wrx too? and is there a specific year wrx clutch/flywheel i should get? thanks in advance for the help!

I bought an "Exedy KSB-03" for WRX and it works and fits fine on a stock Turbo Legacy flywheel. The diameter difference is like 225mm vs 228 mm or something, so it has no issues with being a little bit larger than stock. :)

Make sure you get your flywheel resurfaced if it is messed up.

Welcome to the BBS.

Yes the WRX clutch & pressure plate will work. I'd suggest just getting a WRX flywheel, especially if the existing flywheel needs to be resurfaced.

You'll need to get a WRX clutch/flywheel setup from these MY's 2002 - 2005. I think in 2006 they went to a push clutch setup, which is different. Hopefully someone can confirm or deny that.
