Then keep the stocker clutch lol dont even have to upgrade would be waste of money if you just want 350-400 whp. all you do is cut the endplates off the bar to make it fit jdm rear. look at pic below see the T stands cut those off then get longer screws and it will fit fine if you care

Thanks for the info on the bumper. My OEM clutch is starting to go out. I think I can get an aftermarket clutch for the same price as an OEM clutch and it should be able to handle the power more reliably. I have heard too many horror stories about the OEM Evo clutches.

I bought the OEM right away when it was available in the market, mounted perfectly, and paint is perfect. Aftermarket - you have to worry about it cracking, then you have to paint, and taking a chance of it not mounting right. Just get the oem

i would say the jdm rear is the only part where you should get OEM version hands down has all mounting holes and come with new rivets and you know it will fit a evo 8 and 9. you just have to mod the retainer clip thats so much fun lol. Use my sticky guide for it and it will go smooth
