i've since remounted the oil cooler so thermostat mounting is a little easier and moved the overflow bottle so it wouldn't impede air flow to the cooler 
I'll be replacing the banjo bolts with 45 and 90 deg pushlock fittings

so back on topic hehe... and for the latest update
i got my custom transmission oil cooler lines made up
they now go under the bellhousing and up the intake side of the car to the cooler as the ss manifold doesn't allow for tranny cooler lines
I've made a bracket to hold the lines clear of any other parts so there's no rub and spurt possibilities lol
and here's pics

so i have now bought the last few items i've needed, 3 pushlock an fittings & 2 adaptors and some hose to complete oil relocation and the tranny cooler lines. I've gotta cut the end pipe off the intercooler and reposition it to fit the i/c piping.
Once i've got her painted then i'll be pouring some oil in her and
STARTING HER UP!!!!
and checking for leaks & tuning her fuel on startup
this has been a long build, and i will be extremely happy to finally get her started up after 2.5 years. *crosses fingers* with her sitting for so long she should start up fine, when i turn her over manually she still sounds mint
Not sure how long paint will take as i've gotta wait for the workshop to have some free time but i suspect maybe a month!
Thank you guys for your comments & help through this build

Hello Suze
I like the effort you have put into supras over the years its been great! I look forward too seeing it running again at meremere oneday? iirc your best et was 13.3 i think? It would be good to see her run into the 12s? I see John shannon just keeps getting faster and faster. Great to see fast Supras racing in NZ and keep up the good work!

Thanks James appreciate the comments
Yes John finally woke up and got an ems stinger and is now in the 11's, very impressive
I'm only looking for 12's so these mods are to suit... maybe i'll get the power bug and go for more later but right now getting it going is priority hehe
so here's a couple of pics of what i finished up
All the chrome bits have dissapeared to go and get rechromed by a decent company now
