I've heard a lot of bad reviews about these nuts. Whatever you do do not overtighten them or they've got a habit of shearing the thread which as I'm sure you can imagine isn't a good thing

Last week I received more parts to my project. After some mistake of the USPS who directed the package to Ireland instead of Czech republic I received the package with ARP bolts. A few days after this I received the forged Spool conrods from Australia (see pictures below). Now I'm waiting for the ARP flywheel bolts and trying to find good clutch suitable for 250 hp's, though the aimed power wold be a bit lower. As the crankshaft is quit old (ca 115 ths miles) a new one from Toyota had to be ordered. Gaskets would be also from Toyota and I hope, that soon I'll have all the parts necessary to close the engine 
Here are some parts prepared for the project:
The crank, flywheel and the pulley were balanced and flywheel skimmed
A few pictures from polishing of the engine head cover:

....yes, and it was still not enough
The turbine arrived today, the uprated clutch and fuel injectors are on its way to me.
The last few days I was choosing the bov. My favorite for now is HKS SSQV.

One more package with parts from Toyota dealer
what are your power goals for the 7a?
st205 powered ss3 coupe

The turbo is for setups from 170 up to 250 Hps, so the target is somewhere between these numbers.

Looks like I have forgotten to update this topic for some time, but the project still goes on. The engine was already completed and installed in car, as you can see on the pictures below. Still a lot of things have to be done on the project, like the air intake, exhaust, bushings on the suspension (one may say it has nothing to do with turbocharging, but... I decided it will be a good idea to change them) 
Creating basic maps, engine break in, dyno etc.
The gauges are for oil temp c°, oil pressure and egt
Wait! Something is missing here
I know what this is - it is a result of heavy breaking, so the engine jumped out of the engine bay.
