Stu Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 The original AP Racing mk1 Focus RS clutch doesn't fit in all MTX75 gearboxes, so watch out! The Sachs aftermarket version of it does though. Just looked back through some older pics on this thread and noticed you've cut away the crash barrier for the intercooler! I hope you don't crash or you may end up with an engine in your lap!

richmond Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Yeh as I said it's gone but will be replaced. It needed to be brought forward for the intercooler. Thanks for the concern lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the concern lol How much power are you looking for? You can fit an intercooler underneath the crash barrier big enough for 300bhp.

Stu Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Strange that is, I was going to buy one then I remembered lol, that would of been 400 wasted lol To be honest I last encountered the issue back in 2004 and never really bothered to try and resolve it. I looked at machining the inside of the bell housing but the consensus at the time was that it'd most likely break through into the diff area. I was using an RS2000 gearbox. I'm not sure if ALL non-Focus RS MTX75's suffer the same problem. It might be worth asking somewhere like Passion Ford where quite a few people are using MTX75's now.
