Well congrats, and great project to do. I'd replace everything you were going to do on the old engine to the replacement engine, upper gaskets, intake ports clean, timing belt+WP, remove the sump and reseal it, clean all intake ducting, replace all hose sections and clamps, clean (perhaps upgrade) the intercooler, suspension & bushes refresh, try replacing the ODO cluster.


Around 420K kms the injectors would be near renewing or at least not far off telling you they need freshening up. You'll end up ahead, given everything goes to plan, cost and

performance wise.

A complete going over, she's worth it. Good on ya nevertheless.
