Your focus a SVT? I have been looking for the 5 door SVT. It looks good!

I believe he just modded it to look like an SVT. A four door SVT never existed if I'm not mistaken.

Yes they had both ZX3 and ZX5 SVT focus. I'm almost positive there are a few ZX5 SVTs in canada. It's possible to swap everything except the rear bumper from a SVT to a sedan or wagon, there is that I know of two complete sedan and one wagon SVT builds on the focus forums. I hope to be another later down the road one thing at a time on my budget. There is even a few complete RS builds too. One is on going right now.

I have found a few ZX5's in the OR and WA areas. So close to Canada. I wounder what it would take to make a 4 Door into a full SVT. It seems like something they should make.

It takes a lot of work now a days it's very hard to source out all the parts. They don't make most of them any more. A parts car helps but most are wrecked.

You would need a complete engine trans and ecu. Front bumper, fogs, lip, upper and lower grilles, headlights. Degas cover, a/c controls, full interior, full suspension, rear disc break conversion, wheels and rear bumper. Of the top of my head.
