That it was 
Had done a CAM belt at the time and was unsure of what if any damage had been done. A bit of time, a donor head (purchased complete with VTIS for $80NZ) a few four letter words latter and it turned out all that had been done was two bent valve stems. Head was sent off to lose a bit of weight, replacement stems put in and clearances setup and she’s back on as good as new
Still running stock ECU at this stage, however now that the choice has been made to go with the 4AGZE things are going to get interesting rather fast
Also on the cards is a complete gearbox rebuild, don’t want to put the T50 behind the 4AGZE and have it go bang

its not a bad set-up thats for sure
the rear did have 50mm lowering blocks in there however inner guard rub was bit of an issue so its been changed to 25mm and handles much better.
I/C has been sourced off a mate, Mitsi ZR4 which should do the trick nicely
