Glad to see you're still improving the ride.
Not sure if I'd want to go back to a completely stock ride height and 16" rims, but I wouldn't say i'm a 'hater' of your plan, either.
Have you considered 17" mkIV rims? I think they look really good, yet respect the stock Toyota appearance.
One of the temp sensors at the thermostat neck is responsible for telling the ecu that it's at the proper temp for closed loop.
Maybe that's bad? Or your cold start injection circuit? Just thinking out loud.
I officially proclaim this thread....dead.

A bit of oil in the charge pipes is normal, but looking at the milkshake, you have bhg. You didn't really outline your plan for this build, but if you hadnt planned to...
So, i got the ac core box sealed back up. Next is to pull the fan motor out, just to make sure it's clean in there.
Then i'll remount the ac box and the heater box.
I havent had much luck finding a replacement dash, so i'm going to bring mine to a local upholstery shop, so that they can look it...
