Will 05 clutch fit an 01?

[first vr4]

Will a clutch assembly from an 05 fit in an 01?
Thanks,
Shawn

Yes, there are a couple parts that are different, but a complete assembly will drop in. The 05 has a cushion at the rear most plate requiring the cushion itself and a different plate.

So this will work?

 

[Professor]

Yes, but does your basket need to be replaced. You can buy the normal wear and update parts new for around $200 shipped..... or less.

 

[first vr4]

Yeah. Unfortunatley the basket needs to be replaced. The price look good?

 

[Professor]

Doesn't sound too bad if it is in the shape he claims. You might end up with a few parts you can sell and get a bit of your money back.

Good. I bought it last night!
When it comes time to replace the clutch plates, I guess I'll need to order them for an 05?
Thanks for your help!
