The engine they used for the Scion xD and Yaris TS is the 2ZR-FE "ported/modified 1NZ block" dual VVT-i, its more high-tech than than the 2ZZ-GE with VVTL-i but with less power because it doesn't provide intake valve lift but, it does also control the exhaust valve timing... just like the IS-350 with a smaller displacement.

I hope this enlightens you...

They have plans on making a Dual VVTL-i for the upcoming 2010 "KING" Supra!

Thanks for the info on the new engine, but I wouldn't call it more advanced than the 2zz, variable valve lift is a big deal for performance.

As far as a new Supra is concerned... I believe it when I see one sitting in a Toyota dealership.

EDIT: Also note the engine name, uses FE at the end designating an economy engine rather than a performance engine.
