Clutch Masters 06-11 Subaru Forester 2.5L 5-Speed Turbo FX100 Clutch Kit w/Aluminum Flywheel

If you're looking to replace the clutch on your 2006-2011 Subaru Forester 2.5L Turbo, this Clutch Masters FX100 kit is a solid option. It's designed to handle more power than the stock clutch, making it a popular choice for those who have modified their turbocharged Subarus or simply want a more robust replacement for daily driving. This kit aims to give you a firmer, more direct engagement feel compared to the factory setup.

The FX100 clutch itself is a single-plate design that uses a sprung hub to help absorb some of the shock and vibration, which can make it more comfortable for everyday use than some other performance clutch options. Clutch Masters uses a well-built friction material that offers good grip and durability. This kit also comes with a lightweight aluminum flywheel. A lighter flywheel spins up faster, which can improve throttle response and make the engine feel more eager, especially when you're accelerating out of corners or from a stop. It's important to note that a lighter flywheel can sometimes make low-speed maneuvering slightly more sensitive, so it takes a little getting used to if you're accustomed to a heavier stock flywheel.

This kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and a lightweight aluminum flywheel. It's designed as a direct replacement for your factory clutch assembly, meaning it fits right without requiring significant modifications. When installing a new clutch, it's always a good idea to inspect your rear main seal and transmission input shaft seal for any leaks, as this is the best time to address them. Also, ensure your pilot bearing or bushing is in good condition. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details and torque specifications.
