What 6 speed clutch?

Which 6speed clutch would people recommend using, but don't really want to pay a fortune.

The power is 390/420 on my car

Would a excedy pink box handle it? These are around £350

Got a quote for an act paddle clutch at £625 but abit more then I really wanted to pay really

Cheers

Pink box will be ideal that's what I'm fitting to mine very similar power output to you

Byers used a standard exedy clutch on his also Drew is running a standard exedy clutch on his hawk both also running just under 400s

competition clutch from ASP, Alyn has a good deal on them. Cheaper than Exeedy pink.

good torqure ratings.

Ill go for the excedy pink then

I was running the excedy standard clutch in the 5 speed and it could handle that alright, but I only done 2500 miles on it and 1500 was running the engine in

I spoke to alyn he said to get the act clutch which would be £625 a lot more then I wanted to pay

Use the 5 speed clutch then it will fit pikey style

Won't fit or I would have lol it's a push type clutch on the 5 speed and I've got a pull type 6 speed

Ahh ok looks like I been reading too much bullshit on Scoobynet again lol

The pull type clutch on 5 speeds from the pre 2006 will fit on the pull type 6 speeds pre 2006 I think

If the truth be told I hate my Exedy Pink Box. I am running about 350/350 on my Hawkeye STI and it gets right on my nerves. I've had it since September and when reversing slowly up a slight gradient or riding the clutch slightly on an incline it slips and the clutch burn smell fills the cabin. If I had the choice again I would have paid for an AP Racing clutch which I am told is smoother but a lot more expensive. Might need to change the clutch again soon though if my remap in Feb gets anywhere close to the 450 I am looking for!

Hmmm right ok cheers mate I've been told to not use the excedy so ill save up and get the act paddle clutch

Mines sound lee but its up too you

Looks like I was half right then lol. I thought all the 6 speed boxs were the same...

Yeh dave but ill end up taking it on the strip all the time n fook it probs

I think 2006 onwards the gearboxes are push type clutches on 5 & 6 speed boxes

all 6 speeds are pull type from MY00 to present, the exedy pink box is a cheaper alternative to an uprated clutch, some peeps find them good and some have issues with them, the AP racing and SACHS racing are brilliant all round but more expensive, iddys car ran a sachs racing clutch for about 4 yrs until he sold the car

As Andy says all 6sp are pull type our sti's running std clutch mines running 6pk Act with uprated Exedy cover,
I personelly find the exedy pinks shite judder free my arse better off with a std boxed exedy rather than a pink

Learned something new then so it's just the 5 speeds that are push type from my06?

As andyK said I had a sach in mine for nearly 5 years and never had a problem, clutch feel is very similar to a standard one as well. No problems at all.

I did run a standard subaru clutch for 6 months when the car was running 530/490.

my car stripped the clutch i got off Harvey as you know, which is pretty much an excedy pink, so went for the act paddle clutch and to be honest its not as bad as people say:-)
