Are you tired of worrying about when your throwout bearing might fail? Upgrade to the Ultimate throwing bearing and benefit from a much longer-lasting bearings with reduced wear and enhanced pedal feel.  Specifically designed for Toyota 86, Scion FRS, and Subaru BRZ, this upgrade fixes an ongoing design issue while providing better pedal feel and modulation. 

We teamed up with Ezekiel Lee at CMAutohaus to finally fix a decade long issue with the OEM throwout bearing used on the TL70 ZN6 and ZN8 6 speed transmissions.  Ezekiel is a Subaru trained Master Tech and has serviced many, many, of these failed OEM throwout bearings over the years.  He was shocked to find that even the superceded part numbers from the manufacturer were a bandaid to the design, at best.  And then the new ZN8 came out and we realized it was the same thing all over again! So, we spent the better part of a year rapid prototyping and testing this solution on our own cars and customer cars.  We even sent a couple to Dirt Fish Rally School for abusive testing.  

CAD designed and carefully spec'd, our closed-face, sealed throwout bearing provides longer life than the OEM bearing equipped from the manufacturer, while the slick coating and grease channel on the bearing carrier improve longevity and feel. The Ultimate throwout bearing is the first and only solution that replaces the OEM bearing with a high-quality sealed bearing that prevents clutch material, dirt, and other debris from entering the system.

In addition to improved bearing life and reduced wear, the Ultimate throwing bearing's steel carrier also provides increased pedal feel, giving you more control and precision while driving. The added stiffness, especially when coupled with the Verus fork and pivot, allows you to use a siffer pressure plate, yet have notably less pedal effort.  Say goodbye to your stiff and squeaky clutch pedal, and hello to a smooth and silent pedal throw.

To make installation even easier, our OEM spec high-quality bearing will be pressed onto the bearing carrier. 

Technical specifications:
Tight-tolerance billet steel with low-friction coating
Internal grooving for self-lubrication
Japanese made, long life sealed thrust bearing
