Hey guys, sorry for the lengthy 1st post but need some quick answers. I have found a couple diagrams and etc and read some posts but not getting the answers I need.
This 1uz will be going into a bare-shell caged chassis that will be used mainly for course driving only, so I'm basically trying to delete all the unnecessary items for simplicity. Not too worried about cold start on the IACV deletion, but want to be sure that these motors are not too dependent on that system before I delete.
Also, I have found a couple random sensors and systems that I just simply am unsure of and would love some explanation and a simple answer of whether or not this system is a requirement and can be deleted or not.
Thanks so much for any help and explanation in advancement guys, I'm sure these topics have been covered before but I just simply cant get some of these answers via searching.
On to the questions!:
1.)What is this sensor?

2.)What is this sensor or is it fluid or vacuum related?

3.)What is this sensor?

4.)This entire system I just simply have no idea what it is; it has some sort of plug going to each cylinder into metal tubing going down under the lower plenum into what looks like some sort of pump or something? I dont see it present on a lot of peoples pictures of their 1uz's and cant find any information on it.






5.)Trying to figure out what all this junk on the throttle body is and hoping its similar to nissan where all I should need is the actual throttle butterfly and the TPS; here's the questions on each picture:

6.)

7.)

8.)

9.) Lastly, I see on one diagram that the driver side center of the upper plenum is the EGR valve and the front item is the 'ISC Valve'; is this a sort of IACV and does it serve any other purpose besides that? I'd like to delete all of this and adjust idle via the throttle set screw. I am aware that cold starts will be rough and etc, but as I said originally this engine should be warm before driven regardless. Seems like the front unit has a coolant passage though?
