pull your key barrel apart and clean the bastard out with some contact cleaner/lubricant.
Sounds like there could be something residule which is holding that relay open.
Here are some relay basics for you, in toyota diagramatic form.
# The little windy thing looking like a coil, is in fact the coil of the relay. Applying 12V across this actuates the relay, and connect the "contacts" together.
NB: this coil can sometimes be represented by a rectangular box, with or without a diagonal line through it.
# the bit that sort of looks like a door is the contacts, which are controlled by the coil.
So now the questions must be asked - are we referring to your EFI main relay here?
have you removed the external regulator from the car? This is important as im 99% sure the 1ggte has an internally regulated alternator
When i did the pimp with the interally regulated alternator, i wired the alternator's little 3-pin plug up to where the external regulator previously plughed in (6-pin plug - 2x3). The only wires to be used here are "BATTERY", "IGN" , and "CHRG LIGHT", which are easy enough to test. Make sure you have these correct.
All that done, if its still doing it - you've given it homo disease.
