Default clutch for bolt on wrx...

Non honda related question, but it's for a good friend so i figured i'd post up for him..

his clutch is slipping on his 02 wrx. he is looking for an aftermarket one, most likely a stage one. it's stock for now, but he plans to do minor bolt ons in the future and wants a clutch with some more bite.
what would guys recommend and do you know a good place to find one?
everywhere i look it's like 500 for a stage one...

Thanks in advance for any help

awesome..how did it feel? and how long did it last?
once again, this car won't see more than minor bolt on's and sure as hell won't be a stage 2 utec. do you think the stage 2 might be a slight overkill?

I would expect you'd get some better info if you posted (or even just searched) a forum like nasioc.com, or almost any other wrx-focused forum.

BTW full-face organic clutches, esp with types with copper/metal in them, tend to be more expensive than multi-puck clutches.

My friend runs an Exedy in his STI and loves it. The clutches for the Suby's seem to be a bit more then for Honda's

ya thats how it seems

he's leaning towards an Action Stage 2 metallic clutch. they seem to get a lot of good reviews from the honda guys, but i'm not sure for suby's.

And i would search other sites, but it's not my car. he asked me and i was on here and bored so i figured i might as well.

and boostfed, i'll pm you if he's interested
