jp Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 as some of you know ive blown my gearbox, well i was wondering if the rs 2000 g.box fitted and know one was certain well i can safely say that it doesnt. but an mk4 xr3i fits cos i was sold one and told it was a rs2000 one. (btw i didnt know wot either of them looked like, but i took the xr one back and got my money back, wot a time waster) but wot i am now going to fit is an rs turbo g. box with a limited slip diff that reconditioned but im paying £325 for it with a sur charge of £70 but for this to fit you have to replace the starter motor as the one on the rs sits at the front intead of the back well i just thought id tell you this for anyone who's thinkin about changin theirs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 Wahay, thats actually worth knowing, i wounder how many other mk4 parts are transferable to the later model escorts and vise versa.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRX Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 did your old box have lift up reverse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulo Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 definately worth knowing as i think the standard mtx75 gearbox is terrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp Posted May 11, 2003 Author Share Posted May 11, 2003 no my gearbox didnt have the lift reverse, but so the bloke who is doing this job for me said it doesnt make any difference anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
