what have you done to your car to have problem with all 3?

although most dealers do suck for service, but that isnt just for subaru.


i've also seen 6mt's for at or less then 4k. hell gruppe-s had one for 3200 which was from a spec-c iirc with barely any miles. it's not that hard to find them. for 7500 you can get a whole v7 swap off ebay.

6mt's have been known to handle massive power(for a subaru) so you guys should be fine. for us 5mt guys, i've been planning the day i grenade mine since day 1

for the topic at hand i'd say your dealership has to fix it if they put in the clutch.

If they continue to give you a hard time about fixing or replacing it then you should lawyer-up. Get yourself an attorney that will send them some correspondence about it and threaten them. It looks bad on their part, having just messed with the trans and replaced the clutch, and then it breaks. A good lawyer will get that point across and settle things quickly.

And yet there are people daily driving 300+whp Scoobies everyday without problems. I'm right around 300whp and have 33k+ on the stock longblock. Maybe I just happened to pick up a factory freak.
