Description:
Exedy Stage 2 Cerametallic Disc Clutch Kit (Heavy Duty), Subaru WRX / STI / Forester XT
The Exedy Stage 2 Heavy Duty Cerametallic Disc Clutch Kit for the 2002-2005 Subaru WRX, 2004-2021 WRX STI, and 2004-2008 Forester XT is the upgraded variant of the Stage 2 cerametallic, featuring a heavier duty pressure plate for builds at the upper end of single-disc capability. The Heavy Duty designation means a higher clamp load than the standard Stage 2, providing additional holding capacity for high-boost or high-output EJ applications.
DETAILS
- Disc: cerametallic, high heat resistance
- Pressure plate: Heavy Duty, increased clamp load over standard Stage 2
- For high-output EJ builds near the top of single-disc capacity
- Engagement: firm cerametallic character with HD clamp
- Covers WRX EJ20, STI EJ207/EJ257, Forester XT EJ255
The standard Stage 2 cerametallic handles most modified EJ Subaru builds correctly. The Heavy Duty variant is for builds at the top of what a single cerametallic disc can hold, builds running significant turbocharger upgrades, high boost, or aggressive power modifications where the standard Stage 2 has shown signs of slipping under peak torque conditions.
The HD pressure plate's higher clamp load increases pedal effort further beyond the standard Stage 2. This is a meaningful change that drivers accustomed to a lighter pedal will notice. The trade-off is the additional security of knowing the clutch is holding under maximum torque regardless of conditions.

Why Choose Exedy
Exedy is the world's largest clutch manufacturer and the OEM supplier to more than six major vehicle manufacturers globally, including Toyota, Honda, Subaru, and Mitsubishi. Every Exedy performance clutch is designed and manufactured as a purpose-built performance component, not a modified OEM part, not a remanufactured unit, but an engineered system built specifically for performance use from the ground up. Exedy's research and development happens on actual race programs alongside their road car product development, meaning the technology that wins championships filters directly into the street performance catalog. When you install an Exedy clutch, you are installing a product from the company that builds the OEM clutch for the car it is replacing.
The RallySport Take
The Exedy Stage 2 HD is for EJ Subaru builds at the limits of single-disc cerametallic capability. If the standard Stage 2 is slipping and a twin disc is more than the build requires, the HD is the intermediate step. Fits the 2002-2005 WRX, 2004-2021 STI, and 2004-2008 Forester XT.
