Yes, I'd go from the centre console myself, just depends on what you have access to.

I'm all out of EP91 seats unfortunately. Keep an eye on ebay and facebook groups and you might get lucky with something though.

https://www.toyotagtturbo.com/community/index.php?threads/tutorial-tps-setup-procedure-weejohn.100946/ That's the link that's missing from my last post. As said, the images are missing but the process is there.

Few bits here: https://www.toyotagtturbo.com/community/index.php?threads/ep82-rear-seat-sections.111794/#post-1176336 Storing them in the garage is a pain so I'll shortly be stacking them back in the attic for another few years :)

Glad you got it started at least, one step forward and all that. Noise and smoke means something is hitting something. I've had horrendous trouble with aftermarket clutches and flywheels in the past (namely Competition clutches). That box will probably have to come off again so as you can...

Just checked and the only set I have has a bit of wear. Wouldn't be confident enough to sell them to someone who isn't local. Can be a hard thing to buy online due to the risks involved.

Also check you haven't put paint on the earthing surface of the gearbox casing. Can't see it being the issue but you never know. Box looks well in blue!

Only thing I can see is that the gearbox earth pic you posted looks like it's connected to the bracket and not the body. It should bolt to the chassis leg from memory. (Excuse the dodgy red scribble)

That inlet earth looks similar to the 4efte version. On a 10mm bolt just.

No on the GT thermostat there's the green connector plus two spade connectors. If you mix the two single wires up you get a crazy temp gauge. Thought it might be relevant but the 4efe wiring might differ.

Theres also an earth on the inlet manifold, usually connects to the drivers side of it onto the idle stabilisation valve. That can cause issues if not 100%. It's part of the loom on a 4efte so I'm not sure where it is on a 4efe.

Check the thermostat wiring just in case the spade connector is on the incorrect sensor. I've done that before.

Pint for scale. DS engine mount earth. PS Gearbox earth. Battery earth straps. :p

From your description, probably the earth from the top of the drivers side engine mount to the strut turret. There is also one on the top of the gearbox to the chassis rail on the passenger side that's similar.

Not even reading that. Good night and good luck.
