I'm willing to bet that I'm not one of the lucky ones. The people who broke their forks were the unlucky ones. I'll bet the actual failure rate for clutch forks is very low. And I'll believe that until my fork fails. (It'll probably will happen tomorrow since I doubted it.) |

Had to dredge this one up since I'm gearing up to do a clutch on mine after it started occasionally making strange noises with the clutch out. I'm toeing the line of if I want to replace the stock clutch with a ACT Streetlite or just do OE Exedy. |

My fork broke right after I posted this. Looks just like the second picture. |

Looking at it now, yep, same exact clutch fork for the new gen as the old generation. We'll be updating our website and compatibility. |

The parts lookup shows that there are two supersessions for the current part number, so it's easy to guess that this means the BRZ used two different earlier revisions before landing at the current part. However, this is not the case. The key is to not just look up the current part number, but also explicitly check the supersessions. It turns out the current part number supersedes parts that go all the way back to 1997. The two superseded part numbers cover cars up to 1998 and 2009 respectively and were already out of the picture before our twins. https://parts.subaru.com/p/49239181/30530aa020.html https://parts.subaru.com/p/49239182/30530AA021.html Same with the pivot ball; the one superseded part number went up to 2009, same as the second clutch fork. https://parts.subaru.com/p/49239206/30537AA060.html What I'm intrigued with at this point, and don't have an answer for, is where the WRX fork fits into all of this. https://www.subarupartwholesale.com/...0531AA180.html While this doesn't directly cross-reference to the BRZ, some of the other vehicles listed in the applications also show up in the application list for our fork. The non-WRX, non-Turbo cars listed (Impreza, Outback 2.5L 5MT for 08-09) for the WRX's fork, appear to also show up in the application list for the BRZ fork. Searching by application for say an 08 Impreza, both the WRX and BRZ clutch forks show up. https://www.subarupartwholesale.com/...12-100-01.html This suggests that the WRX clutch fork is actually interchangeable with the BRZ part. |

All the BRZs and 86s right now use the same basic transmission. A few internal parts are different, but the transmission packaging is the same. Taking the Impreza you mention, did you actually look at the parts diagram and see that they list both clutch forks, but also 2 different pressure plates, 2 different clutch release bearings and 2 different diameter slave cylinders?

I also want to add to this. I replaced my clutch with an ORC 409D, told myself the upgraded clutch fork and pivot weren't necessary. My pivot cracked off approximately 5000 mi later. JOY
While my fork seemd fine. I will say, the clutch feel is markedly improved with the Verus fork and pivot!
