Head should be back from the machine shop tho week. Gone with big cams & valves, springs a shimless setup  plus  rear head drain & NITTO oil pump. Getting close.

Pulled out both hubs to replace bearings only to find I need ball joints, cv boots & tie rod ends as well....

You would think Pedders would have picked up on this when they did their inspection and told me they crushed the ball joint when they put it in.

Never going there again.

Honda Odyssey absolute 2.4 k24a2 engine.

Only 200hp and FWR it is slow otherwise its much better driving than stagea and its more eco friendly 6-7l/100km

Future plans. air suspension and new rims

Doing wheel bearings and lower ball joints today. Have uppers as well but they don't appear to be serviceable. Is that correct? Ordered through Febest and PN matches the model.

So on the Maatouks racing FaceBook page..

Shaun’s stagea came in for a MR 700 package packing a RB30/26, 6 boost manifold, garret gtx35/84rs, Turbosmart 50mm wastegate, ID2000cc injectors,custom cooler pipes and catch can all controlled through a Haltech plug and play ecu with all sensors and wideband for engine protection and peace of mind. Making just under 400kw @ 16psi at only 6000rpm on a running in tune.

great outcome from the engine these cars should have left the factory with   

let us know how it goes once you lean on it a bit.

My C34 was pretty quick with 320awkw - yours should really shift with 388 and should be fun on the track with over 400!
