2018 Yaris SE 5MT - T-Sport w/Valvematic! - Toyota Yaris Forums

Great update and glad to hear you've ironed out those bigger issues. Bet that's a good feeling :)

I suspect that the Yaris gearbox mounts and mounting points aren't providing enough space for the 2zr to bolt to the gearbox and clear the frame. Just out of interest, was there a little lateral tension on that engine mount when you unbolted it?

Good to know about the need to keep things matching up :)

Interesting on the throttle point as well. I actually find the stock Yaris throttle in the first 10 to 20% to give me no throttle, which to me is not what I'm expecting coming from a car with a cable operated throttle. I'd welcome a linear throttle that mapped 1:1 what my foot was doing! Speaking of gas pedals, the pedal is damn aweful as well but I've been eyeing off a replacement option from another Toyota that should make heal toe a little easier.
