Does anyone know if any other ford master cylinders will fit the fiesta rs turbo with abs? Cheers.

the escort mk5 will fit and improves the pedal but needs some fettling if youwant the bonnet to shut.

Doesnt need any fettling to make the bonnet shut mate :-?

Fits straight on with a modification to the input shaft on the servo and drilling out the wholes on the servo mounting plate...

Trust me.. I've done the mod.. you'll have no issues with clearance on the bonnet.

This modification will however require you to remove the ABS. Its rubbish as it is and really improves the brakes removing it.

~nomad~ had a Mk5 Escort Servo on his Fiesta and there were no issues at all on bonnet clearance.

Definately remove the ABS though as it's shockingly poor
