Default focus rs replica??

hi there guys and girls..

Right a mate of mine has put a depost down on my leon and i am currently saving for an rs.

Basically i have been lookng around and can see myself having about 8.5k by june, The problem is the rs that this money would buy woud be high millage ! , I know a few have done it on here. But how much would i be looking to build one from say a 2ltr esp ? ..

Im talking full engine and all , possibly a 6 speed from an st170 and obviously the body..

A standard car is cheaper than a modified car in the long run.
