First US 2ZR-FE Yaris swap gains exposure

[3cyltrbo]

sooooo........................................why aren't we also talking about the 2Litre- 3ZR-FE ?

Is it because its not as readily available in North America?

Does anyone (CTScott???) know if it is dimensionally the same as the 2ZR ? (ie:, is it just a bored and stroked 2ZR?)

Either way, I'm still anxious for more information because I was thinking about some other "next level" mods for my 1nz-fe, and it seems more cost effective to put that investment into a swap.

We briefly discussed the 3zr, and yes it will probably work but like you said...its not available in the US. The 2zrfae just now showed up here and it was developed in 2010!

If I had some assurance that the 2 litre was the same (externally) as the 1.8, and if I knew that it would bolt up to the 1nzfe tranny (like its looking the 1.8 will) than I would almost go through the effort of importing the 2litre (I know a guy ) ......................................

1ZR, 2ZR and 3ZR are more than likely the same as 1NZ and 2NZ. They're all different displacement but otherwise use the same parts. Unlike the 1ZZ and 2ZZ in which are totally different engines.

thank you, this is reassuring (and I know that you know your stuff)
