Not much done over the last little while. Alarm installed, but no pics of that for obvious reasons, just driving it around a bit.
However ive started workign on the 2JZ to get it ready to go into the bay soon. Now that my timing belt and bits have showed up i got them installed:

Plus while i was cleaning things up i popped the cam covers off to put new gaskets on, and wrinkle coated them:

Plus i picked up the bits for my new exhaust, thanks to Drew at AAA Exhausts and PLAYA for the ECV:

Oh and a cheapo set of spanners to leave in the car 🙂
Once the wrinkle coat dries ill be able to pop the cam covers back on and put it all back together again, but that can wait for a bit. The weekend has pretty much been spent on the AE86 anyway. Ill probably start the 2JZ conversion in April as thats when my wife changes rotations to a more single car friendly roster.
One thing i do have to do before then is figure out how to cut this:

Basically i have to cut it down to just before the injector mounting bosses. Ive given an abrasion cutting disc a go, but it just tends to cake up. Ive heard that using soap on the disc helps though. Maybe ill try that, anyone have other suggestions?
