Although it appears nobody gives a rip about this haha, I will update it if for anything, my sanity.
Lates update is the chassis is going to powdercoat this week. To have them media blast it and powdercoat it is around $350 so plenty worth it to get a perfectly painted frame. Engine heads are being built this week, Kelford cams looked awesome and the engine internals looked baby skin smooth @ 98k miles! I bought a used car trailer to haul this baby around, I figured Chassis to powdercoat, back to the engine shop, body shop to engine shop, engine shop to performance shop for ECU install would suck in cost, so instead of spending the money on that, i bought a trailer to use, refinish and resell and make some money on it.

I would but then there would be a flat spot and you would clearly know it was shaved off, so I'll just leave it to show how cool it is

Did I tell you guys I picked up a TRD boost gauge for this? The TRD boost gauge shows max 10lbs boost, and everyother boost gauge is a lot more. Since I will not be producing over 10lbs boost, and because Toyota OEM is always the best option when possible, I picked one up. These things are not easy to find, I had to search all national craigslist adds to find one. I haven't decided on gauge mounting yet, I don't really want a pillar mount, but I don't want to alter the beauty of the original inside either I also have a AEM Eugo Wideband, so I'll probably go with the double pillar mount.

Does anyone make a stand alone wire engine harness for these? I keep looking at the huge pile of wires next to my engine and walk away, it's imtimidating!

I don't see anything wrong with shaving it off ... you could apply a TRD decal/emblem or something like that ... just a suggestion .

Contact Form member Dawgz, he was looking for one a few weeks ago. He bought my gauge pod and only needs the gauge. I don't know if he wanted white though.

There isn't one, you have to do all of the wiring. I am going to be running the AEM infinity 8h universal and you can eliminate a lof of unecessary stuff from the factory wiring according to my tuner. I don't know much about that stuff, I actually paid somebody to mate my 4runner harness with my 1uz harness for $500.

I dropped the chassis off at the powder coat place to sand blast and paint satin black. Also had them go ahead and blast the arb bumper. Checked it on the body shop who hasn't done much lately, but has began to graph the 4th gen hood scoop in.
