Any aftermarket clutch forks??

So do you think the ball be paired with the throwout then? I see you're saying 'buy both' but fuck that's a lot of work to R&I the transmission for science.

From what I've been able to gather, the pivot should match the clutch you're running.
Laid down flat, it appears the inner fingers of a WRX pressure plate stick up higher then that of an RS. 4mm it would seem.
Picturing a clutch installed, a "thicker" WRX clutch, to keep things aligned in an RS transmission would need the matching, shorter pivot bolt to adjust/make room this distance. You're essentially "sliding everything down", if that makes sense. Or, I've heard of people swapping out their slave cylinder, or modifying the RS one, to have a longer pushrod that comes out.

For my Baja, I matched the pivot ball to the 06+ WRX fork. Full 06+ WRX clutch kit on an N/a trans, ground down the ribs like you mentioned. I never tried a wrx clutch fork with an N/A pressure plate, disc or flywheel though.

Sorry that my info isn't too pertinent.

For anyone else reading, if you have the 92-05 WRX style trans, you can use a 6mt clutch kit with that, takes a little grinding inside the bellhousing near the starter. Advantage is oem feeling clutch that holds more power (compared to stock ej205 clutch).

Agreed!
From me putting 2 and 2 together, the ribbing in the bellhousing that needs to be shaved down is when a WRX pivot bolt is used in an RS transmission. The clutch fork is now 4mm closer to the bellhousing, hence, needing to make some clearance for it. I then imagine a WRX transmission is already shaped inside for this clearance.
