Thanks for the excellent replies...

Okay so far on the list:

Water pump
Idler Pulley bearings
Serpentine belt
Plugs
Air filter
Ignition leads
Clean injectors
Timing belt
Engine mounts

Hmm...this conversion seems to be getting more and more expensive. Any idea the costs of the Water pump, idler pulley bearings and timing belt?
I think timing belt will be quite a bit.
Cleaning would be wise - might be clean when I get it Very Happy

Can the engine mounts be changed after? Or is there more labour involved and better to do it from the start.

Bearings are cheap - just press the knackered one out and take it to a bearing shop to match the size.
Engine mounts aren't necessary if yours are in OK condition - look for cracks around the round rubber base. New ones are around $250 per side from toyota, but you can get them cheaper if you sweet-talk the dealer. It's much easier to change the mounts when the engine is out of the car!

Now is a good time to change the suspension bushes, steering rack boots/mounts and get some new shocks too Smile

FYI my conversion from 7M-GE manual to 1JZ manual cost ~$1500 on top of the cost of the halfcut. Doing 99% of the work myself.
