Don't know how much stiffer the WT Zetec is. If Ford have done a good job, perhaps they can stiffen up my WS? If not, where else to look? TIA

Not sure exactly what your asking, but if you mean stiffer suspension, maybe some aftermarket springs and shocks, plus some strut braces maybe.....
The strut braces are on the euro parts site last time I looked |

Theyre pretty stiff mate. I had a WP that fell off a jack minus its rear drivers side wheel, and the thing held itself up on just the three wheels it had on. F'in amazing.

You could take a WP around a corner and the thing would just grip, bugger all body roll and it'd hammer through. The WS, as good as it is, doesn't offer this. Then again, it has suspension that's firm, yet very comfortable. My WP had suspension like a rock haha! I'd love to make the rear end a bit stiffer, and make it roll less. The front is pretty solid, but the back being so light and with softer suspension does like to skip around corners and show more roll than a WP/WQ Fiesta.
Then again, it wouldn't be as comfortable. I think Ford have got a good balance overall however.
