Clutch Masters 06-13 Subaru WRX 2.5L Turbo 5-Spd FX200 Clutch Kit
The Clutch Masters 15021-HDKV is the FX200 clutch kit for the 2006-2013 Subaru WRX with the 2.5L turbo and 5-speed manual. It is the kit for owners who drive hard but have kept the car close to stock: an intake, an exhaust, maybe a mild tune. If the original clutch is worn out, slipping on a hard pull or chattering when you leave a stop sign, the FX200 replaces it with something that lasts longer and feels almost exactly like the factory clutch.
The FX200 uses the Clutch Masters Power Plus I heavy duty pressure plate with a steel-backed Kevlar disc. Unlike the FX300, the facing is a full Kevlar ring rather than segments, so engagement stays progressive and easy to modulate in traffic. Clutch Masters rates it at 70 percent more holding capacity than stock, about the same torque capacity as their organic FX100, but says the Kevlar disc lasts two to three times as long. They describe it as the smoothest-engaging stage they offer, with only slightly heavier pedal pressure than stock. The Kevlar is non-abrasive, so it will not score the flywheel or pressure plate.
Inside the kit you get the pressure plate, a heavy duty disc with a sprung hub and marcel spring wafer, a release bearing, an alignment tool, an instruction card and decals. A pilot bearing is supplied only where the application needs one. The flywheel is sold separately.
A fourth-gear pull from low RPM is the quickest slip test: RPM rising without matching acceleration means the disc is done. Our transmission slipping guide covers the road test. Chatter has more causes than a worn disc, such as oil on the facing, worn engine or transmission mounts and a glazed flywheel, and the clutch chatter page sorts them out. If gears grind or the car creeps with the pedal down, look at the hydraulics before you blame the clutch.
Our listing covers the 2006-2013 Subaru WRX 2.5L turbo 5-speed. Clutch Masters lists 15021-HDKV for the 2006-2014 WRX 2.5L turbo 5-speed and for 5-speed Legacy GT applications. It is not for the 6-speed WRX STI, the 2002-2005 2.0L WRX or the 2015-up 2.0L WRX. For the 2015 car see the 15020-HDKV FX200 instead. Imported, swapped or Legacy GT cars should send us the year and full VIN so we can confirm the fit before it ships.
Planning more boost later? The FX300 15021-HDTZ uses the same application with 110 percent more holding capacity.

It suits a car with simple bolt-ons that is driven hard. Clutch Masters rates it at 70 percent more holding capacity than stock. For a car with a downpipe and a pro tune or a bigger turbo, the FX300 is the better pick.
Clutch Masters says pedal pressure is only slightly higher than stock and the FX200 has the smoothest engagement of any stage they sell.
No. Have your flywheel machined or replace it while the transmission is out.
No. The STI uses a 6-speed and a different clutch. This kit is for the non-STI 2.5L turbo 5-speed WRX.
