So I finally got around to sorting through and separating about 1/3 of my spare bolts and managed to find the banjo bolts and crush washers I was missing off the water feed to the turbo. It was nice to hear the old girl run again after nearly 3 years.

Set the TPS and ISC but she's still idling a little rough. Thinking the fuel might be a bit stale. I'll keep tinkering away although I won't bother registering her until I need to drive up to my brothers in canberra for the engine conversion.

As for collecting parts, I managed to check probably the least necessary part off my list for a decent price and picked up a used Black Edition APEXI AVC-R. As I'll end up running the car on a dyno once the engine swap is done I'll get the boost controller set up and tuned in manual mode as from what I've read the boost levels will be a lot more stable than in learning mode.

As I have some decent armrests on the way I decided to finally start on the Power Window conversion.
So long manual windows... hello power windows. I'm yet to do the wiring, and the old service hole covering
was torn already, so it'll get replaced when I run the wires next weekend.

Also, decided to mount the AVC-R in the glove box as it will be easy enough to swap gloveboxes in and out
for rego inspections. The solenoid and pressure sensor are yet to be mounted and will end up being well hidden
in the engine bay so good luck to the inspector who traces the vacuum lines to find it.
