I can't wait to see how this will turn out!

Started to install elektronics wires etc stuff
Quite a little I needed from orginal ecu wires:
Speed sensor
Low oil pressure warning
Oil level sensor
Water temp sender
Starter wires
Reverse gear switch
Powersteering wires
Water valve wires
ABS wire
Everything else we did tested (and all worked) but abs, speed and powersteering was left for future testing when car is moving.
Next will be megasquirt installation..

Yesterday we were tryin to set up the IACV but we run into problems. Its toyota 1jz gte 6pin iacv. Middle pins 2/5 +12v and pins 1,3,4,6 are idle pins. Ms3x standalone ecu. Found some aem threads about disconnecting +12 from iacv (pins 2 and 5) would help for running iacv with standalone, (if that would help also with megasquirt standalone) will try that next time.

You're going to have one hell of a summer cruising this thing. It looks terrific.

Weather is getting warmer now at Finland. Around +5->+10 Degrees. I have been able to take the car out for basic tuning test and drive it a little bit. Still havent yet booked the time for dyno because of coolant leak 
1/3 pictures (small one without clamber), feed or return coolant for stock second turbo. What method u 1jz single guys have been used to block or whatever for this? I think it wont last because of heat from downpipe. I was thinking about squees and block weld it..
