sorry to bring up an aging thread but what parts are you guys using? Are you using genuine mk1 RS body parts on the mk1 focus? Or using replicas, made for the convertion?

lowering
Hi there, my friend has transformed a red 2.0 ESP into a full RS replica and i have been helping him! Does anyone know of someone else that has carried out this transformation? We are both unsure as of how much the car should be lowered without causing problems with the 18" wheels on? What do people suggest, we are looking at full suspension kits that will lower it either 35mm or 50mm.
Any help will be appreciated!!!
Any help will be appreciated!!!
ive got rs focus rims on my standard focus, lowerd around 40-50mm with 215-35-18 tyres no problems

Glenny Boy: Its on pistonheads if you want a full spec and price, and yeah if your interested you can a look around it at some point, that's not a problem
Miselk: It was based on another ford hub and redrilled yes, hence been custom. It did have at one stage rally hubs on i.e just one stud in the middle!
Dingle: I'd of loved to that but circumstances have changed, otherwise i wouldn't dream of sellin!
