Which Fiesta do you have?
What engine are you going for?
What power/mods are you aiming at?
What do you want to do with the car?
What sort of budget are you on?

To be brutally honest because of the weight of the RS2k's engine you will probably be stuck either going with coilovers or Koni top adjustables with some custom springs.

Brake wise the 4x4 Cosworth conversion is tried and tested.
