🚗 Vehicle-Specific Notes
Honda
Civic/Accord: relatively straightforward. Lightweight flywheel. Exedy OEM kit recommended.
Subaru
WRX: transmission is heavy. Need extra hands. Flywheel is dual-mass on newer — replace with single-mass if desired.
Ford Mustang
T-5/TR-3650 trans. Heavy. Transmission jack essential. Throw-out bearing retainer clip.
BMW
Dual-mass flywheel is expensive. SMG/DCT models are not user-serviceable.
Toyota
GR86: subframe drop for trans removal. Budget extra time. Standard clutch kit.
Volkswagen
Dual-mass flywheel standard. Replace with clutch. Subframe may need lowering.
