Ford Fiesta MK3.5 1.8 Zetec Conversion?
Hello,
I have a M reg 1994 Ford Fiesta 1.1 Mk3.5, completely standard and I would like it to be converted into a 1.8 zetec. I'm beginning to get quite confused about what i'll need and what fits what. If anyone could list what i'll need or offer advice, I would be very grateful.
My main concern at the moment is the suspension, I know the mk3 and 3.5 differ, I was thinking about buying complete rs turbo suspension including the hubs, would i need an rs turbo gearbox or would the one i already have suffice?
Cheers.

I've spent countless hours on both forums, although I've learnt a lot I still haven't found what i'm looking for so i thought i'd try this one first! cheers

Too many posts.. I need a life!!
I think if you have a front ARB you're going to have the most supsension parts compatible with the XR2i & RS1800 suspension.
Hubs might be tricky between ABS and non ABS
