One of our local guys tried 6 different clutch extension shafts that our local importer gave him, and only one had a hole that looked like it was drilled straight. The car kept on stripping gears however, so they finally deduced that the hole in that one was still not perfectly straight. The solution that another local MTX5 driver has come up with, was to go the a local engineering shop and get some shafts turned out. That fixed the problem; and I would have done exactly that if I owned one of these cars, a few little pieces like that wouldn't cost much to get done from a small engineering shop.

It appears like Mugen's engineering contractor has drilled the very deep holes after turning the shaft; instead of turning the shaft out from the center of a hole that was drilled first. Ridicilous it seems; and quiet basic which any engineer should have known.

Kindest regards,
Lars.
