Bit of bling to replace my old weeping cap - nice billet TRD unit.

Loving the build so far, cant wait to get my 2j into the 110 when I finally get it back.

With the throttle conversion did you do it yourself or the workshop to fit it? I've bought mine a few months ago still waiting to get the car back from compliance before I fit it and just looking to see if you had any major issues fitting it. Also did you notice it idle a lot smoother? Reason why is I have a bit of a rough idle even though all my sensors are all new and fine (maybe just need a tune - next on the list)

Lamin-X - most cars have pre-cut film available.

Workshop - can't read Japanese so good :P Got ST-Hitec to fit.

Idle is about the same - though was smooth before too.

Update time - trans has been stripped down and new bits are being added.

Was some weird ****** residing in there - a couple of bolts in the pan that were not part of the transmission, and the old frictions and steels had definitely seen better days!!
