Exactly, FFXI and FFXIV use completely different graphic engines for one, to say nothing of differences in server code and the like. Having said that, we do have a couple of FFXI armour sets in FFXIV already (the 'Wootz' sets for tanks and LNC/DRG) so it is possible to add FFXI armour to the game.
However I suspect it's not as simple a task as it appears to be, and probably isn't even 'copying armour models across', more likely they model the FFXI armour in the new engine completely from scratch (or at least the textures, the aforementioned Wootz tank set is far far more detailed texture wise than the FFXI Koenig's armour it's based on).
But I'm getting away from the thread topic here.
