Expo West Prep

Post by yoshi234 » Tue Sep 04, 2018 12:56 pm

Just when I thought 234 was ready to go w/ just minor prep, axles threw a hissy fit...which leads to a bunch of "might as well" :thumbdown:

Both axles out so might as well replace the axle seals. Need to remove the header to access the seals on the driver's side. Might as well change out the cracked 5zigen header back to JDM header. While the header is out might as well change out the leaky cat donut gasket also. Front suspension was semi taken apart, might was well get an alignment and tyre balance.

Looking good!

Radiator was pulled to get header out?

Thanks.
The OG Koyo is super fat so it had to come out first. 😖

Good stuff y0shi! I am in your boat, I wrapped my Expo prep last weekend as well:
