Hi ,
Can anyone advise me is the clutch fitted to the 1999 -2003 is the same unit as the 93 - 99 Vehicle .. I have Located an Original Equipment Clutch Kit but the seller believes its for a circa 95 MY I\'m just Concerned if the assembly was uprated on the late models
of if anyone out ther has a clutch for said model please let me know
Many Thanks
Martin
Hi Martin,
Just checked the part numbers of a year 2000 car against the nunbers for a 1993 car and the Clutch IS definatly the same unit in both cases .
Hope this helps
I think the reason this is quoted is because the official UK car was only sold upto 95/96. I\'ve seen lots of price lists of parts for the FD and alot of the time they say 92-95 next to the FD3S chassis code, but the majority of stuff would still fit all the later Jap models.
Hope that helps, Paul:)
Many thanks for the clutch help .. I have a source in SanFrancisco !! willing to ship to the UK for " A very reasonable price " .. He was unsure of the spec too and advertised them as Full Clutch Kits .O E 93 to 97 MY .. So with Confidence now, I will place an order .. T
The present clutch seem fine around town at the moment ,but on the Motor-Way under large throttle opening and at high speed . I get an ingredible pong of burning linings. I suppost that where the motors working hard and the "horses" are trying to get out somewhere . Guess I\'d better take it easy untill the parcellpost arrives
Many Thanks again and Best Regards
Martin
Hi Martin, Not sure whether its the same on the RX but my scooby needed a new clutch recently suffered from eau de roasted clutch, but once they start to slip, u risk loosing the flywheel too. I too had to take it v easy til new clutch was in, u may want to cruise round in the MX5 for a bit :) take pressure off the Rex
