I'm no sweet fa about flywheels' so here goes. Does the F6 and XR6T use the same flywheel? I'm sussing out my clutch options and wondering if it's worth changing the flywheel for ~ 280rwkws?

Had a bit of a search but no love :(

Wouldnt they be the same if they share the same boxes? Makes sense (maybe!). Is it the the torque that kills the clutches and boxes?

Brendan the F6 flywheel is different due the design of the twin plate clutch

So the F6 runs a twin plate, what does the XR6T use?

I know many people change to an Exedy flywheel when they change the clutch in the newer WRX's / Sti's and that it seems to be a worthwhile mod..

I got told the 6speeds are almost bulletproof too, how true is that??

The six speeds are bullet proof Simon from xtreme ford tuning has been putting 500+rwkw through his with no dramas for quite a while. His clutch is a standard f6 typhoon clutch with cerametallic frictions and a Nizpro billet flywheel thats the host ticket for big HP.

The stock xr6t is an organice single plate. Its is evil and should have been drowned at birth.

Brendan the f6 clutch has it clutch pressure plates bolts in 3 groups of 3 120 degs apart. There not evenly spaced like a single plate. The bolts are grouped so that there is clearance for the drive tangs on the intermediate plate.. :stirthepot:
