Has anyone considered the 1ZZ-FE engine and 5 speed trans? A Toyota Mechanic I talked to said the engine and trans mount bracket holes are close enough to maybe be interchangeable.
I know its not the hi zoot engine but it has 130 hp which is ideal for a 2260 lb car. It wont be sick fast but you can drive it in the rain every day if you had to. They already put a 130 hp 1.8 in the TS version of the Yaris in France.
Also, the head is narrower than the 2ZZ-GE so the engine may fit without modification to the firewall and core support etc.

130whp is achiveable with the 1nz with out the cost or hassle of swapping the motor with bolt ons and propper tuning....

2zz-ge or 3s-gte FTMFW!

One of the Yaris sedans at SEMA featured a fully tuned Garrett turbo charged 2ZZ-GE2.

There was some heavy modification as the steering wheel was moved further to the rear of the vehicle for even weight distribution.

i give you guys one word,..."FOOSE"..

everytime i'm heading north of i-15..right before passing Ontario Mills,
i always see the sign Foose on the left..

...they might not give you Corolla engine..but they'll throw in a small block V8..

if that's possible, it's gotta be a mid engine kinda car, place right behind the drive.
added some AWD system.......saweeettttttt!!!!!!

Yes. I'm working on the swap and trying to gather more data. My mechanic is going to look into this as well, plus finding the engine and tranny.
It'll be something to have done next year after i've had fun with the 1nzfe.

I keep looking into this for a big option for my future, Just waiting to kill the warranty. 17k into 36k.

Ive already found a shop that is interested in doing it, but they havnt come with a ballpark figure for such a swap, they havnt done anything this tight and unique before. But they have done a ton of Honda swaps, and some oldschool 350 Small Block, '91 Celicas.

Ill have to get with them to double check if the 4age Silvertop with a 6-speed would be more feasable on a budget, only thing is, older motor in a newer car....



But I would love a 2zz, just dont think its totally do-able especially if you plan adding a Turbo or major bolt-ons. Not to mention the 4age has a TON of upgrades. But same goes for the 2zz, I guess its all what can be in reach of your Budget...

Big money = Big swap.
