Sounds obvious and has normally been done, but if the insulation under the bonnet hasn't been removed, remove it...Does wonders for the cooling. Got 2 options there - total removal (I did this) or just cut around the scoop...

Either way the heat haze coming out of the bonnet give an indication of how much heat it was trapping under there...and amuses most of your passengers.

Turbo timer and Alarm system are 2 things i would do pretty quickly... see you have done the alarm already...

I went to canberra toyota, to see if they were going to service mine the said "there was never a limited edition gt4 brought to Australia." It took me about 2 seconds to walk out, and am now a happy customer of Neal Bates Auto's...haven't regretted it for a second!

For a driving tip - Generally to a 4wd turbo - when you first loose a bit of traction, resist the temptation to countersteer...back of a little, keep the wheels pointed to where you wanna go, wait till it starts to find the line, and plant it. If you countersteer you will suddenly find tracktion while you are heading the wrong direction, and like my mate with his wrx crash it before the first repayment.
