Are all of the serviceable parts readily available?
A18: Yes. The clutch parts are all either VW or Subaru, with the exception being the clutch disc for either a Subaru engine with a dual mass flywheel (as used on some naturally aspirated models from 2000 onwards), or some turbo models from 2001 onwards. These use aftermarket parts, as, to the best of our knowledge, there are no suitable production car parts available. In most cases, all the parts you need will be fitted to your VW or Subaru engine. Whether new ones are fitted at the time of conversion is up to you. It depends on the condition of the originals, and whether you know their history.
