Which clutch should i get for my 04 sti?
 
Go back stock or aftermarket?

It depends. How many miles did your old one last? How do you drive? Planning to autocross?

do you plan to modify? if you have the money, i wouldn't fuss around with any clutch besides an exedy twin plate! i have one on my car and it does not chatter at all and holds XXXXXXX power.

Its basically stock. Last clutch had 48000 miles but i bought the car with 44000 miles and just drove fast and some redline shifting. No autocross. I might possibly drag it every once and a while at the track and prolly not real hard. If you think aftermarket what kind, where to get it and ballpark price.Can anyone here do an install?

I don't see any reason to get an upgraded clutch honestly, unless a one-step upgrade to soemthing like Exedy (who makes most of the OEM clutches anyway) or ACT is cheaper. I personally am a big fan of lightened flywheels, but there are differing opinions on those. I would only let an experienced Subaru mechanic change my clutch.

I have an Exedy Hyper-Single. It rocks, but is damn near un-streetable. I got mine used from a fella that lives in San Fransisco... had it for about 100 miles on the car and decided he simply couldn't live in those hills and still drive the car. :lol: I don't blame him, as I can't stand stop and go traffic on flat ground!

So, if you're planning on driving the car daily, don't go too crazy with an aftermarket clutch, you'll probably regret it.
