If you have a very strong clutch you also move your load from the clutch to the gears. These transmissions are very durable, but not impossible to break, especially with FI. Coming from a WRX, I can tell you many horror stories of people shifting into the next gear while at 7k rpm and ripping 3rd gear into bits
