Default Fiesta rs turbo rebuild project

As the last couple of fiesta turbo's ive bought have turned out to be totally dogs i picked up a other shell atthe weekend off matty872 . it needs sills 1 wing and a lower front panel as i am being fussy .

the bootlid had started to rot along the bottom edge so this has now been changed with my other one . the front bumper had been cut out for a grs intercooler so this has also been changed for my other bumper .




floors look all good



engine bay looks good aswell





also have this intercooler to go on aswell so no cutting the front bumper




i have a new pair of gen ford wishbones for the front 6 pot tarrox brakes i have also ordered polybushe's for the rear beam and anti roll bar .



engine wise will be a fully rebuilt engine with a ported head and cosworth t3 turbo

will update as i go along
