Nice looking car, super clean. The one benefit of a 2zz swap is the availability of aftermarket parts specifically pre tuned ecu's from MWR. 2zr lacks in this department big time, no P&P ecu's available

We have a base model vibe with the 1zz and I've been toying with the idea of putting a 2ZZ into it once it is no longer a DD, so I've been watching the market for them.
Yeah, I've been thinking about jumping on car-part.com and starting to see if there are any 2ZZ's out there.

Yes, I was talking to Ken Suen and my bro-in-law about that. It would take more fab work than the 2ZR but would have more ECU support.

Imo if you want an engine that you can tune and make more hp then 2zz will be the easiest, if you want an easier swap and OEM reliability than 2zr is the best option
