I am glad that the job can be done without dropping the subframe, but I will see how things go. I'm still super impressed that you did this in your driveway, and by yourself!

EDIT: I did order an OEM mount. I also emailed the seller of the aftermarket one and requested an RMA.

The engine has landed at home.
My daughter may be the new wrench turner in the family. She really enjoyed helping to put the engine hoist back together. I'll be borrowing an engine stand and leveler from the school early next week. In the meantime, I'll try to source the engine hooks. A couple of my former students lending a hand. One is actually our tenant.

MAF Wiring in harness
Started hacking away at the harness. My glasses mysteriously went missing so there was a lot of squinting going on. I added the MAF sensor power wire that will run to the fuse box (thanks Trevor). Not having any automotive wire on hand, I grabbed a roll of decent quality 14 ga stranded copper speaker wire. Not sure if the OEM wiring is aluminum or copper. Hopefully there won't be any dissimilar metals issues. It's a really good connection with about 1" of wire from each wire braided into each other, soldered, heat shrinked and taped. I may have shorted the power wire a bit, but I think the mini add-a-circuit wire will reach. If not, I'll splice in a bit, solder and heat shrink. Braided and soldered Heat shrink, tape and 90 bend More taping Finished connection

There used to be some good options for exhaust systems by RPM, but as you all know....they canned their 2zr support.
I would personally recommend finding a oem midpipe or at least the collector, then just have the rest of the system made to meet up with whatever performance muffler you have. I went with 2.25 all the way due to the overwhelming amount of complaints from people that tried 2.5. 1 catalyst and 1 resonator is all you need to pass smog and sound restrictions You’re engine looks really nice, must be a unit someone took care of. Things should come together quickly now! I strongly approve of your wiring work, looks completely oem. I soldered my wholle home-made harness with heat sharing also, and with all these years, and having it apart several more times... and racing! Don’t let anyone tell you solder is “brittle”. |

I'm kicking myself in the arse now for not buying the 2008 OEM pipe when I had the chance. I made very solid offers and they kept rejecting them and it was a "Make an Offer" listing. I figured I'd make one final one but by the time I went to, it was gone. Do you really think that the aftermarket OEM Scion xD midpipe that I ordered will be too restrictive? I would hate to go to all this work and expense and suffer significant power/torque losses due to inadequate flow? I was so disappointed when the Canadian outfit sold me the Magnaflow and then told me they couldn't get it. Yes, the engine looks good. I had a heck of a time getting the dipstick out but once it come out it would go back in and out fine. I thought it was going to break off and slide down into the pan. I hope the internals are good as I'd be in a bad way if there were any major problems. I'll clean it up and antiseize various bolts as recommended by Trevor. I still have to make a decision about the location for the swap. The school shop would be awesome but I'd have to be running and gone by Sunday evening. I have a guy who will help me but I have to do it on a weekend he's available. We are away next weekend, so maybe the following.

I would think any exhaust pipe made for the 1.8 will have properly sized piping. I made the comment about pipe size in case you had to get it made.
Make sure you get the a/c evacuated before the go time. With the auto I don’t think you have to pull the trans out at all, remove the torque converter bolts behind the black cover, put a jack under the trans to hold it in place, then there should be enough room to lift the engine straight up and out. |

Does this apply to dropping the 2ZR back in after the 1NZ is pulled? So, in theory, I could drop the 2ZR in, bolt up the bell housing, converter bolts and be good - other than the wiring (including the necessary speed sensor wire swaps), ATF lines etc? No need to mess with with axles or suspension components? That could prove to be a major time saver and potential frustration saver! I wonder if the extra width of the 2zr would make it difficult to mate the engine and transmission while in the engine bay. Would I be correct in assuming that if the transmission mounts are either loose or removed, and the transmission supported by a jack, that there would be enough play to tip the trans back and forth to get it bolted to the engine? It's interesting as when I went to ask the local mechanic if he woud be available in a pinch, he asked why I would remove the trans at all. I dismissed it because I thought he might be thinking about just putting the same type of motor back in - not necessarily one with slightly different dimensions. Sorry for all the Q's but I'm getting pumped about this! BTW, my timing case bracket arrived. Just have to hop across the border and get it. So there's something else I can do to my engine while waiting to dive in to the swap.

Awesome progress. In regards to the dipstick tube make sure you cover the dipstick o ring in silicone grease. For what ever reason the 2zr dipstick like to corrode at the top of the tube and seizes it in there. Ask Sam how he knows... even mine after 1 month of not pulling it out got very stuck. Cleaned it up and greased it and no issues since

As an aside, and of course it didn't apply in your swap, but would you used some loctite on the torque converter bolts when installing and torquing to spec? I can only imagine the destructive result of having one of those bolts come loose and bouncing around in there. Completely unrelated...Looks like I'll be getting a new windshield in my '06. Yesterday, the lower passenger corner took a small rock; I think from a oncoming vehicle. The crack is already creeping diagonally toward the center of the windshield. I thought we'd been shot. It was freakin' loud.

I can't say how quickly the tube seizes as my engine bay get exposed to water quicker due to my 2 vents I cut into it. How quickly it happened to mine is probably not the most realistic for others but they are known to seize as Sam also found out.
I did not use loctite on my flywheels bolts in actually used a very small amount of antizeize and torqued them to spec. I don't remember the repair manual saying to use loctite so I never did and haven't had an issue. I'd only use it if recommended.

I took the Corolla mount off. A 12pt 14mm wrench was adequate, but just. A little tapping was required. Those bolts are in there tight! Definitely a situation for never seize. Had to remove the motor mount guide pin to get the top bolt out of the mount after it was removed from the engine. I would have installed the Scion bracket but I'm waiting to go pick it up when a couple more packages arrive. Removal: Removed: New Scion Bracket Installed Lots of anti-seize! xD bracket installed. Just have to go find torque spec in my service manual. Installed Parts: A (1 X) Toyota #12315-37040 (bracket) B (3 X) Bracket mount bolts (came off the Corolla Engine) C (3 x) Toyota #91552-L1240 (bolts to attach engine mount - to bracket)

Tom is correct about leaving the trans in the car while swapping the engine. I removed my whole trans w/ the motor because I was replacing the clutch and flywheel.
That said putting the 2zr back into the engine bay and lining up the main shaft to the engine would be a huge pita compared to easily doing it off the car. Imho I actually think it is quicker to pull them both together, reassemble w/ the 2zr and slide them both back in together. When the front of the car is off there is a ton of room to remove the trans and engine. Ultimately you will have to decide what works best for you but the 2zr block is a direct bolt on including the starter

Let's say that I do take both out and put both back in together, will the axles slide into place without having to break the ball joints and pull the struts out?

You don't have to touch the knuckle or suspension to remove the axles. You can get away with it by just removing the ball joint and once its separated from the knuckle you can swing the knuckle out and remove the axle. I do this all the time when working on my axles so that I don't need a realignment every time.
The yaris bj's sit in there snug so a proper tool makes it a breeze to remove them and not damage the bj. I use a tool like this https://www.princessauto.com/en/deta...or/A-p8004135e

Yes the 2zr will drop right in place of the 1nz, just be sure the dowel pins are observed since they can get stuck in the engine or trans. Then if your 2zr has both and one is stuck in the trans it won’t go together. The auto slides in much easier because there is no shaft to align, both components have flat surfaces.
Leave the transmission in and don’t touch any of the mounts, it’s not in the way. |

Very true, I forgot that that a/t has no shaft to align

So...I should still take the front of the car off though? If not, is the radiator removal enough? I'm liking the sound of this more and more all the time! Thank you guys sooo much! I'm feeling much more confident; not assured, but more confident. The next thing that I want settled in my mind is the swapping of the speed sensor wires. Looking at wiring diagrams is one thing, but actually envisioning it in my mind with real wires and connectors will get me over this little hump. Any advice or pics would be tremendous. I'll go back and read the threads again but don't recall seeing a pic.
