Desert Racing: preventitive maintenance
Hi
Im going to be taking my 94 FD out to a couple track days at Buttonwillow and Willowsprings in SoCal at the end of May- a nice 4 day weekend at the track.
The car has been rarely used (driven once every other week) while I was in New York. 68,000 miles. Bone stock... but only for the moment.
My plan is this: fly back in, install HKS downpipe and Koyo radiator. Drive it for half a day to check reliability, add Apexi GT catback maybe liniarize water temp gauge, and go.
I really dont want anything to go wrong mechanically- its been a while since Ive driven anything at all; longer since ive been to the track. Should I do anything else or do it differently? I do have a pretty short window (2 days). Anything to watch for after the mods?
thanks
