Any chance of converting an existing S2000 car to a 1600T engine/gearbox/driveshaft version, or are there big differences in the suspension as well ?

As far as I know the suspension should be the same in S2000 and 1.6T WRC because 1.6T WRC is based on S2000.

Henning told me that he loved the new Fieasta WRC, and that it did'nt feel that much slower then the current WRC car.. He said that the engineers and engine builders were so good and finetuned the engine to perform really good.. He said that the cars next year will be more equal.. And quote :" that's really good for me!"
As for Rally Germany, the gearbox failure, was just a small glitch from the mechanics.. took them 5.min to repair.... they forgot to put on a "something" .. :)

However, this is not quite true. The suspension of the new Fiesta RS WRC will be different. I'm quite sure. ;)

So no possibility to upgrade then ?

I heard that in case of Fiesta it won't be possible, not confirmed though.

This is all just speculation for now. I think you are confused with the Fabia. :cheese:

Why should I? I know couple of people running Fiestas...
