Looks good. I hope you never pop the coolant hose at the back of the head that's under it ;)

thats a brand new genuine one under that coil pack its only a year old with a t bolt clamp holding it on :) i should be ok for a while lol

the point is to clean up the area a bit and with na cam covers on it should neaten it up a bit, plus it may be nothing but it might make the coil packs a bit cooler not sitting on top of the engine at the front, time will tell..

Nice !
I agree, NA cam covers would look better now.

By the way, if you want to clean things up a bit more,
pull those 2 tubes that are pressed into your throttle body, that you have hose looped on.
Find someone to make a couple of aluminum press-in plugs to go in their place.

this isn't as easy on a lhd supra.we have a bellcrank set-up for the throttle linkage.
the is300 cop set-up would look even cleaner

Gonna say the same thing, Also, the coil packs would be hotter at rear of engine since it's closer to the exhaust. Now to get the ARZ covers. ;)
