Apparently my oxygen sensor has died, most likely from too much exhaust heat, so I've ordered a new sensor and a special heat-sink / bung-extender from Innovate Motorsports. My LC-1 controller still seems OK.
The sensor has been in my car for about 2-3 years since my first round of engine mods, and it did endure some very rich mixtures in the early days, and occasional tailpipe flames  so it's done well to last this long.
 
Apart from that, my car is still heavenly to drive.
 
Jay (MR2QIK) finally had a chance to do a proper photoshoot with my car today, so I'm really looking forward to seeing the photos when he gets around to uploading them.

That was quick! Thanks very much mate.
The photos turned out great!!
Do you mind if I use those pics elsewhere (eg. MR2OC and fb) and acknowledge you accordingly, or would you rather re-post them yourself?

Whats the sensor doing?

My Innovate LC-1 is showing a specific error code (#8), and that's how I know that the sensor is most likely damaged due to overheating.

Autopista side skirts.
BTW, the very first post on page 1 of this thread is always kept up-to-date with a fairly detailed description of all the parts on my car, for my own reference as much as any one else's :-)

Here are some photos of my car from the 2014 MR2 Trackday Challenge earlier this week.
Credit to the photographer, his watermark is on the photos.
