I'm looking to carry this out and have couple questions:
1. Is it possible to wire in the controls to the relevant buttons, ie use the rear window heater button for the actual rear heater?
2. Do you need to wire in the unlock as when you open door they unlock anyway? so could i just wire up the...
Hi Guys,
I have taken my ph1 172 off the road to convert into a road legal track car.
Who is best to insure it as a 2nd car just to drive to track days and back?
Limited mileage aint a problem and i have over 9 years no claims but used on my main car.

My PH1 has an oil leak, i was keeping an eye on it to see how much it was loosing. It was fine then dropped quite quickly to half way down dipstick.
I kept an eye on it as i drove some more mileage and it lost small amount but not much.
i decided to top it up and watch the level vs miles...
After fighting all afternoon to change mt rear discs i have given up and car is stuck a wheel down :mad:
Rear passenger wheel bearing has gone so started to remove only for disc to come away but leave rear half of the bearing sleeve stuck to the stub axle. Tried everything to move it forward...
I noticed my passanger side rear wheel was sticking further out than drivers side but car seemed to drive fine.
Couple days later got banging and scratching noises from said wheel. took it off to find rubbing in arch liner and leaking shock.
The car then jammed said wheel and ABS light...
Got a wet floor behind drivers seat at rear footwell, all is dry around just the floor area is wet.
also when break can hear water (sounds alot) move from rear to front. tried shaking door and doesnt sound full. previously poked about sill drains and nothing came out.
its a w plate phase...
Just done my 1st trackday in the PH1 yesterday.
Was really impressed with its handling, just a bit lacking on the straights.
Great fun though :D

Alright
looking to get my dash flocked on my PH1 but wondered what people do with the passangers airbag section?
Does the blue section seperate to send to be flocked or do you need to ditch airbag and get lower spec top section of dash

Bloody cars got to love them, just spent fortune on brakes, oil, fluids and prepping car for track and fault occurs the day before :mad:
Think it is clutch release bearing...am i right?
at low revs you can here a wine when off throttle or constant speed. really loud at 2k and below sometimes...
Known my luck this will be serious.
Started getting a whirring noise when slowing down in lower gears, goes away when clutch dipped.
Now noise in all gears at lower speeds between 1.5k to 3k revs when slowing or constant speed, fine when accelerating. When dip clutch noise goes away also...
Evening!
had no fog lights when i bought the car so thought i would take a look at them tonight.
played with connector and got drivers to come on but passangers still off. checked fuses and bulbs and all ok. swapped passangers lamp to drivers wiring to test and it came on,
