I think given proper input this could be a stickied thread...
I mean until you have done it, you are really just going through a guessing game... so a pros/cons/photo thread would be helpful to some...
I'll see if I can't get a photo this weekend... wait for a post edit....
---as for the 1JZ move the firewall hole to the driverside, well I did this, and sure it reached - after I custom fabbed some ECU brackets which rotated it 180, and I still needed an intermediary harness for the dash/chassis plugs... (fortunate to have a 1/2cut and a full parts car.) that area becomes tight quick - heater hose, throttle cable, brake lines, vac hoses...
---12V fuel pump mod helps clean up the passenger strut tower...
---by de looming the harness a little I managed to get the ignitor(+DLI) and injector moduale into the dash (I know my timing loop is now in there - probably a PITA later)
---Cruise control can be deleted and plugs pulled back into the drivers fender
---some people even move the fuse box - a little impracticle in my opinion - to inside the fender splash guard...
---battery relocate -- personal taste.... I passed in favour of a second battery...

well if i wasnt going in for surgery i would be working on this aswell as doing a step by step photo and instruction manual
Basic wiring clean up is easy. All out wire tuck is tough, but tucking it AND maintaining basic functionality is the really hard part.

^theres a bolt hole down on the frame rail farther back than subframe bolts that you can mount the igniter on.
Gurley, can you comment on the removal of your heater check valve? Seems that would impair the AC and defrost ? I'd like to remove mine for looks, but I need defrost.

Im currently still looking into the issue. I removed it but noticed my dash getting really hot on long drives because of the heater core getting flow. I have put in a valve from a old tacoma but i believe its on the wrong side of the heater core. I live in AZ so I plan on having a manual valve I can switch twice a year.
