i dont think it has had a rear quarter.. its a weird one, should be a mk3.5 being an m plate.. but the front hubs and shafts were from a mk3 as far as can remember... coz darrell had some issues finding front shocks and hub and shafts for it. i think its a very late mk3 rs1800.. although think the interior is from a mk3.5. it came from my si though with was also a bit weird. |

NO1 dont get that one lol thats for the Zetec Se, no the zetec, ashley do a zetec one but its for escorts and is a bit fiddly to fit to a fiesta, where you join the midsection, usually you need a flexy welded in, if i were to do it again i wouldnt bother if im honest, too much hastle, would have been fine without the flexy, the way its designed they absorb plenty of the movement with no fuss |

Post subject: | Re: My RS1800 |
nah mate thats for a zetec s mk5. the exhaust manifolds on a different side of the engine on those towards the bulkhead like. i think this is the one you need http://www.burtonpower.com/ashm20.html? ... WbRf=GBase have a look in my post in modifications im trying to find a different manifold from a focus and make it fit a fiesta as people have done it before. i had an ashley one on my fiesta before and the fitment wasnt great it used to blow a lot. |

Post subject: | Re: My RS1800 |
thats the right exhaust yea theyre cheap and nasty but theyre the easiest to fit and cheapest and pretty much the only one for a fiesta, even though theyre for a escort lol, ST170 ones are cheap but a bitch to fit, so are blacktop ones |
