Question about Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport

  do I need to apply for a China Visa for the transfer from Shanghai Hongqiao Airport to Pudong Airport?

  Hello
  I will be arriving at Hongqiao airport at 4.10pm and have to catch a connecting flight at 8pm from Pudong Airport. From what I've read here, catching the train sounds like the fastest option however I was hoping someone can tell me:
  1: do I need to apply for a China Visa as I will be checking out of the airport to get to another one although I'm really only transiting for 4 hours
  2: how long does it take to clear custom and collect baggages at the airport
  3: will I be able to make it to Pudong airport in time for checking in to my next flight.
  Many thanks in advance
