How to get the torx bolts out to replace flywheel

Have broken two tools trying to get them out

Torx bolts? That hold the rear plate on the flywheel? That shouldnt come off, the whole thing is supposed to be replaced as a unit.

 

If you buy a replacement flywheel that doesn't have the rear plate, you have to have the whole thing rebalanced after installing the old plate on the new flywheel.

Its cheaper to just have the original flywheel resurfaced.

Having a dual mass flywheel in an 02 Forester I'm going to assume you are in a country other than the US, we didn't get the dual mass setup that uses torx bit bolts until the 05 Legacy GT. That said they're not your standard torx head, they use the torx plus head. The size needed is TP-50.
