ST and Zetec S (TDCi, not petrol) stuff is a direct bolt on for your TDCi.
Spring rates for ST and diesel fiestas are the same and tbh the ST isn't really that low!
I'd recommend an Eibach spring kit. Its circa £130 but a quality bit of kit and makes the Fiesta handle really well as well as giving it a subtle drop.
This was my MK6 1.4 TDCi on Eibachs and 16" wheels.
If you do go for springs the TDCi and ST have the same part numbers

Hi
We fit a lot of the Eibach springs to the Mk6 Fiestas, they are very popular.
Get in touch if you end up going down that route and I will do you a good price.
Thanks

be careful - witrh these, one year the emissions is like 7g different an it jumps up to the £100 odd quid a year
but yeah its £30 a year, great fun for what it isreturns 45-50mpg on decent runs.
revolution - i will get in touch but its my dampers that are worn not springs - whats out there to match the eibach spring kit?
or is it best just buying geniune st complete set up?
its not a massive ride height drop i want just better handling ovrall for driving.
