Hi, I'm from Macedonia and I bought a Ford Fiesta in Slovenia 1.1, 1994 MK3. I bought it this year. For me it's a perfect one, I don't want to talk about big or hot cars, I know they are good too. But I just can't get rid of it. I just wonder if you can help me with some guide about modification on my car...I don't want to put any turbo stuff, well I don't know if it can handle, if yes I would fit in one. I just want to modify it on interior and to keep my machine clean.

I have owned this car for quite a few years and still don't get bored. I use mine for track days and it cost me a fortune, but worth every penny don't go for the Japanese stuff, buy original and keep it Ford. Buy one! And for the youngsters: stop writing them of!

I bought my Fiesta cheap with work needed doing to it. I have had a new head gasket, ditched the old intercooler for a pace one, ditched the weak t2 and had a t3 fitted which is a lot stronger througout the boost. Great car if you are willing to spend some cash. Parts are cheap and easy to get hold of but more of a weekend car than a everyday car due to the hot summers.

If you've got the money you will get an awesome car that with a bit of teasing will get you 200bhp and that is fast boost at 15psi and let the car take off.

The Ford Fiesta RS Turbo is a very very fast car, eats Clio 182's for fun, most Subaru's cant keep up either.

The Fiesta RS Turbo is a little pocket rocket. Lighter than the Escort RST and with a smaller, more efficient turbo it is a quick, fun car to drive. The Fiesta RST is very tuneable and 165Bhp is easily attained with simple mods (thats what i've got). Parts are very cheap and DIY maintenance is possible for most jbos. Drawbacks are the same as any turbo car I.E reliability issues. Regular oil changes are needed, with fully synthetic oil to maintain the life of the turbo and as the car is no ...

I bought my first frstFord Fiesta RS Turbo a few months ago - despite a few early probs i have it set up and running sweetly - long may it continue!! i have been very impressed with the car - it is quick off the lights, top speed is more than i expected and torque low down on the rev range is very impressive! if u buy a turbo solely for the dump valve then the fiesta is the way 2 go - mine sets off with mild town driving whereas the escort boys need a run up 2 achieve any boost at all!

I THINK IT IS A VERY GOOD CAR FOR A BOY RACER, IT LOOKS GOOD AND CAN BE PUT TO A LOT OF SPEED. TOP SPEED SO FAR IS 150MPH BUT CAN OVER HEAT BEWARE. A GOOD INTERCOOLER IS NEEDED BUT NORMAL SPEED WILL DO 135MPH NOT MODIFIED A BIT. NOT MODIFIED BEWARE OF GT STARLET WHEN YOU THINK YOU ARE ALL BIG AT THE LIGHTS .

The Ford Fiesta RS Turbo is an all round good car to own but be careful of used and abused ones! FFSH is a must ! Welch owners beware due to the turbo, the increase in fuel consumption up hills is staggering! the engine doesnt like to be labboured to much

This car is wicked. my Ford Fiesta RS Turbo beats most cars at the lights and I dont even maximise the in-car turbo boost. I would seriously recommend buying one if you can afford it. There is sensible room in the car for passengers and even with a large set of Kenwood 12's in the boot there is enough space to fit a large childrens buggy, no room for the shopping though!
Possible modifications,
DUMP VALVE
CLEAR LIGHT CONVERSION
TWIN ...

In standard form the fiesta is'nt that quick but it is a very versatile engine with a lot of tuning potential. I have spent thousands on the car, the engine is stage 2 spec, it has more power than a standard wrx scooby but it is only good for around 35000 miles. but those are very fun miles. all in all this is a weekend car, something i would recomend for fun use in the summer, for an everyday car it would not be practical and reliability would be considerably compromised.
