The 2zr-fe engine swap guide

[ilikerice]

If I do Rcomps, I plan to run an 8" rim with 245, maybe 255 if the price is right. With Rcomps, they are designed to have that mushroom sidewall because of how stiff they are. 225 on a 8" rim is ideal for a street tire (200+tw) because you want either lateral or a slight stretch on the side wall because you want the least amount of flexing of the tire side to side to the road.

I used to run SMF in the CRX and ran the Khumo V710. I tried them out on the Yaris when HS was allowed to have Rcomps before they changed it from H Stock to H Street. Rcomps really bring out the body roll in a yaris, LMAO.. Lets just say I was warned about getting on 2 wheels with R comps with stock suspension....

So if the 2zr motor is pretty easy swap.. I am curious, being that the corolla uses the 2az motor in the XRS in mexico as well as the 2zr, if the 2az would be somewhat similar....

I think first you'd have to check if both motors use the same mounts in the corolla.

The other issue is the engine harness for the 2az likely doesn't match up to the yaris harness like the xd's does.

Doesn't mean it wouldn't work, your just have a lot of rewiring to do and your want to have wiring diagrams for both cars to know what ever wire does on the engine harness

That's actually pretty east to research, you just need a subscription to Toyota TechInfo.

True true.. also size may play a factor. Probably not enough room in the yaris if it is a tight fit in a corolla

Also make sure if you run just a motor swap without the transmission, that the 2AZ mounts up to the Yaris trans. You may want to do a whole powertrain swap with trans and axles.

the 2zr in considerably tallker than the 1nz and seems to be wider as well. Not too sure how the 2az compares size wise to either engine

Yea, be we are talking about a 1.5L to a 1.8L which having a longer stroke in the crank (if the cylinders are the same size) will make the engine taller and wider obviously.. but now the 2az is a 2.4L, so I am sure that boy is much fatter

My wife's Camry has that engine, and it's a pretty huge block. I can't think of any way you could make it fit into a Yaris, at least not without a lot of cutting and welding in the engine bay. Plus, I think it would make a Yaris very nose heavy.

I actually located and prepared to do the 2az swap 4 months ago. A guy wanted a 2zr swap, so I offered him mine and I would attempt the 2az.

The project got abandoned once the buyer backed out, oh well. I'm sure every 2az ECM has immobilizer anyway

[CrankyOldMan]

The 2AZ also mates to an E351 gearbox, so it's probably not a direct fit to the C50.

[ArmstrongRacing]

Needing a transmission and axles also makes the 2.4L swap much more difficult and expensive. It would be cool but not easily performed like the 2zr. It may be cheaper to buy a turbo kit for the 2zr vs attempt the 2az swap
