I searched but didn't find anything . . . Since there is soooo much ample space under the hood of the Yaris Hatch, i was wondering if it would be possible to do a Honda K20A2 swap with our vehicle . . . :burnrubber:

I'm with the Honda bashers, I'm afraid. Why swap in a K20? If you want more power out of the car, you can turbo it for about the same cost, or possibly for slightly cheaper go with a Chevy V8 like JohnnyFive said. If you want a Honda powered car, go buy a Honda. If you really really want a Honda engine in there, you could make it work. But there are so many better alternatives I can't imagine why you would.
There is an excellent reason you didn't find any hits on that search.

better than the Celica ... I'll take a K20 over any N/A Toyota Engine...

if you have a spare si or rsx motor lying around and dont give a hoot about your yaris, well than go for it. id say rear wheel mid engine, like a renault clio.
but if above isnt what your working with, well thats just dumb.
oh and youll be screwed, both honda fanatics and toyota fans wont like you much, where would you bring your car to show off.

I agree... Honda ppl would not like you for putting the K20 in a Toyota, and the Toyota ppl won't like ya for putting a honda motor in.... you want to shit yourself like you did in the K30 powered EM? stuff a 3rd gen 3SGTE in your Yaris, you will be more then shitting yourself http://www.toledotuners.com/phpBB3/images/smilies/dancingpoop.gif

Rotaryaris... Seeing as they are a completely different type of engine, it would actually be quite interesting to see a Renesis in a Yaris... but bye bye fuel economy!!!

I don't think any of us can argue that the K20 is probably the most formidable 4 banger around when you look at the big picture. However, you would then be driving a Honda Yaris, and that is just ghey.
GHEY I SAY.
3SGTE FTW.

It would be an expensive Yaris. Get a FIT if you want to do that.
One of the inane swaps I have seen is a V8 into a Miata.

LoL... putting Name brands ( honda / Toyota ) aside the potential of a K20 Yaris would be amazing
even an F20 ... or H22 LOL... now im getting out of hand

if your gonna swap all that might as well put a 4g63T in it. it has more power potential in stock form. i mean the work would get a praise and all but the honda guys would tell u were a wannabe and the toyota guys would call u dumb. it wouldnt be cost efficient. but it is your car do your thing

Actually, if you wouldn't mind a two seater and if you were handy with a welder, you could probably fit a Porsche turbo flat 6 in the rear.
