    MK2 PH1 Grande to 172 PH1

    wheels could look really cool with some stance work! (ie bit lower, poked out the arches slightly with a little stretch on the tyres!) wing mirrors need to go, and dual optics give the game away that its a nonsport! ;) other than that i think it looks really cool! front splitter actually works...

    Strugglers back!! ph1 172 project! (bit of a read)

    ive thought a lot about it tbh, but this would mean an new cup master cylinder, changing all the brake lines, and adding a bias valve as iirc, the abs pump controls the front/rear distribution? (not 100% on that one though) i was planning on leaving it in for now, and perhaps removing it at a...

    Help with Steering hub compatibility!

    valvers dont have locator splines nor do williams! i didnt think any of the mk1 range did but seems otherwise! mk2 ph1 and ph2 bosses will fit but youll probs loose the auto cancel on the indicators as its controlled by the squib on the mk2s!

    Jon's Trackday PH1 172 project thread

    my mk1 did something very similar to this! idled around 2k, turned out it had spat some of the inlet gasket off for some reason! also might be worth checking the lambda if you have a spare one knocking around!

    10jrears on a phase 3?

    This is missing the ph1 exclusive!! not amused! lol it will be possible to fit 10j wheels on with the correct offset. the problem you will have is getting all of the tyre under the arch! which is legal requirement. it may be that the offset needed to clear the shocks/other parts, leaves too...

    Strugglers back!! ph1 172 project! (bit of a read)

    well theyre close enough so theyre going to stay like that! the passenger side adjuster is as low as itll go so unless i take the adjuster out, it wont get any lower! :( i think im going to waste tomorrow trying to get the exhaust hanger off and maybe fitting the rear braided lines!
