I am still awaiting arrival or repaired ECU.....it has been over 2 weeks now since I sent it out to LexTech....when I contacted them before purchasing the repair i was told it would take 2-3 days for the repair. Lextech is not very responsive to emails nor easy to get into contact with. I just want my ECU back so I can drive the car.

I've had similar issues, but never looked at my ECU, I should do the same.
Pretty much in the same boat as you, I changed o2 sensors and got another maf, still same, mulimetered all other sensors and they all checked out okay.
I want that damn ecu to arrive at your house already, the suspense is killing me! It's times like these that make me despise EFI lol subbed

Got the ECU back today.....
Unfortunately it did not solve my problems. I went out for a test drive for an 1 hr to let it warm up and do a few pulls on the engine. Was running decent for the majority of the time and then the last few minutes I couldnt even get it to stay running with my foot in the gas....it was smoking pure white smoke out of the exhaust really bad. I had to sit on the side of the road and keep cranking it to it finally fired up and it was driving really bad...The engine seemed like it was down a cylinder and had no go to it at all, I managed to limp it back to my house and I had a solid check engine light and I am getting codes 21,28, and 31. The problems just seem to be getting worse every time. At this point I am ready to scrap the motor and save up for a swap.
I have been looking at my options and I tossed between a 1jz/r154, 2jzgte swap and use my w58 trans or rebuild my current engine. They are all relatively similar in cost when you add things up.
Not sure which approach to go...
