looking at replacing the friction disk in my 2.2l turbo with pull type clutch. Is the friction disc on those the same as the push type?? what about a newer WRX friction disk? Nobody sells just the friction disk and for a kit when you add the word turbo, the price doubles so if the friction disk was the same i could buy a cheaper kit....they look the same to me....

You might come up with something that is the same dimensions (check that first at a local parts store. they will have that info. ie: disc diameter, input shaft size, input shaft teeth count) and then if it is the right size, check to see if it is the right material. if it is a different material, there is a chance you will have clutch slippage (not very likely that there is a difference on material) the only problem i see with that is if you have a heat crack on your flywheel or your pressure plate. if everything is perfect, then you should have no problems. I suggest just throwing down the cash, surfacing your flywheel at a machine shop, and buying a kit.

Call the clutch manufacturer tech line, you'd be amazed at what interchanges with what once you get dimensions, spline count, thickness etc.
