Reckon u could change my thrust bearing Simon? i would give u a bit of cash lol

[I8A4RE]

^^^ doing the clutch as well?

[silverGPX]

Possible could have a mate going, Teanna, she has an FTO in WRX blue, directed her to make an account on the forum. Anyways she might come along.

[Fto_Jason]

Oh definitely get her to come along, the more the merrier

The clutch is fine, it just has a noisy thrust bearing. Doesnt slip or anything.

Hmm, I've seen a blue FTO with what looks like white stock rims parked up on Hume St. near my place a few times recently. Is that her, Matt?

Personally, I wouldnt go to all the of the trouble to replace thrust bearing without replacing the clutch as well unless I new for absolute certainty that the clutch was only replaced recently.

Also mate, I think it will be a bit of a stretch doing at the DIY day. I think if I was going to do it. Id rather have all my tools handy and I would also need my engine crane which will not fit in the FTO lol.

+1 at just getting a full clutch kit.

[silverGPX]

ah but i love my clutch its really heavy and i dont know if i get a new one itll make it softer. Its hard as Fk atm, ask pete. But if i got a new clutch kit, how much would u be willing to put it in for me Simon. Ill pay cash?

[brad_gpx]

i think it would still stay heavy

my last one was heavy and my new one is heavy

not sure what my last one was but my new one is a exedy heavy duty one
