whats the difference between subaru's stepped flywheels and flat flywheels

 

 

i have a 98 rs flywheel that i just got resurfaced and the guy cut the outter face (where the pressureplate mounts to) lower than the inner face (clutch disk). so that if it was laying flat the inner would stick higher in the air than the outter.......

 

so i thought that would mean its stepped

 

haha help me learn

That explains it for honda. I was not aware that subaru had stepped flywheels

explains why some people have a low clutch pedal after a clutch job.

 

It's never been mentioned here before if subarus have stepped flywheels. if they do I wonder if having the clutch replaced and clutch chatter are directly connected.

 

Anyone?

I should have explained it better. A Stepped Flywheel there is a pocket for the clutch disc to sit in.
