hi will, loving the build diary, have watched it for a while, quick technical question , not sure if your the right person to ask but yeahh..
i have koni adjustable rebound front dampers with eibach pro springs just fitted to my st170, and i have standard rear shock absorbers with eibach pro springs.
The dilemna is i also have a new spax rsx coilover kit sat behind me but want to get my money worth out of the koni dampers before fitting the whole coilover system.
Is it ok to fit the spax rsx rear shock absorbers only for the meanwhile, meaning all the spax springs and adjustable spring stuff would not be used either.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
is the debadged grill you have this one?? (would love a hofele one but can't find any)

Few random pics i've uploaded off my phone:
Had Ade Brannan with me for the day taking some snaps for Fast Ford - hopefully he's done a better job than me

people may call me a chav here lol but i LOVE the single wiper!!!
is it in the std wiper position or did you make a new scuttle pannel? reason i ask is it looks bang centre and from memory i thought the wiper stem was more offset to passenger side?

To satisfy my OCD, I chopped up and modifed a Storm single wiper kit so that it was centrally mounted!

Looks awesome Will, will surely buy the mag in anticipation. Actually makes me want to wrap my car now
Oulton Park, fond memories of that oil leak eh Will?
Good job, been a long time coming but I hope you're now happy with the end result

I managed to get a picture, but the van was shifting too fast for me to get a good one, just a shot of it heading up the hill from the chicane, it was back on four wheels by then
it was good to meet you on the day, along with Sticky and Graham (?) Can't wait to see your cossie sometime dude.
Cheers Will for the invite, when Ade's pictures come through obviously it was my awesome pushing that will have made all the difference. Just a couple of my snaps from the day for you;
Will contributing to the prep
It's running!!
a nice shot
Will in a grump, that's what sleep deprivation will do to him lol

It won't make 450 Al, the power steering fluid is above the max so that'll weigh the car down...unless Wills OCD has kicked in and he's got it on the max
Nice to meet you Spud, hope you get the big up you deserve for cleaning the car inside and out, lazy arse using the sleep excuse

I've seen that look on Will's face once, after the gearbox session on Ian's old car at Santa Pod. He can be a grumpy f*cker But justified
Great pics there, but who won in race, the Focus or Connect? If the van didn't then Paul owes me money 'coz he said his stickers add 50bhp
