I’ve debated it. The issue with that becomes I would have built it out more if I planned to do that 😂
Keep the boost at 7psi and think of the standalone ECU as added insurance. Someone touched on it prior, but the stock ECU does some things timing wise that I would rather not see on my boosted 1FZ. :eek:
 
Cerakoted all the exhaust side.
Prepping for paint on the rest

Yep. Used the harbor freight hvlp touch up gun with a 0.8mm tip. Came out great besides a few runs.
I should add I did follow the instructions very closely. Sand blasted with 100grit alum oxide, heated, degreased, etc.
Very nice. What kind of durability and heat tolerances do you expect? Is it as durable as powdercoating?

Made some EGR plates out of stainless. I thought it would be faster to do with a cutoff wheel than my plasma table. It was definitely not.

Got almost done rebuilding my rear locker. Then shattered the housing changing the shaft seal. Ordered new front and rear lockers (aisin).
Just waiting on them to assemble the diffs and build the axles.

Fresh oem bushings pressed into all the suspension arms.

Doing this as my full time job til we leak for AK.

Tried mixing the green and grey cerakot together as a base for the valve cover. It ran way more than the “glacier” line I used on the exhaust. Speckled it with a few mixtures of the gray and green. Don’t love it but don’t have time to change it 🤷‍♂️

Where the injectors come from?
I ordered them through partsouq. Can’t buy them through Japan I learned after my first order was canceled.
I belieeeeve but could be incorrect they are out of a 105.
I’m hoping the 4 hole with help with atomization with the turbo vs the normal 2 hole.

They do the same in old school 4.0 Jeeps. And it made a difference in drive ability. I’ve been interested in something for the 1fz.
Based on part number that looks to be true.
