Default 3dr cosworth comparisons with a 2wd saff cosworth


Hi, first post so go easy on me, I was just wondering weather parts from a 2wd saff are inter changeable with a 3dr cos, I understand the engine/box would be but what other parts would also fit ( e.g running gear, wiring etc) thanks for your help.

Most mechanical bits interchangeable, car loom is not, but ecu loom can be used, it's only really the shell that is different, apart from lots of tiny small little bits trim etc.
The front hubs on 3 door particularly sought after too.
Do you have a plan in mind ?

rear ARB is not a straight changeover as the rear arms are different, dash clocks have a boost gauge on,

Trust me the 3 door rear arb would hardly be noticed if you left it off, best option is a sapphy one and easy to do even using 3 door arms, just a simple bit of welding and fabrication.
