strictly a biased opinion on the rebuild / swap. 3g's for a used engine?
Search for a 2zz engine on ebay There are a few yards here that have used long blocks w/ tranny for 1200 or less. What engine? Buy the engine harness from toyota for a few hundred, the ecu off eba or another yard for 50 bucks. That gets me to about 3500 or so parts only. A far cry from 7400. Again what engine? Not a 2zz And since when are you going to lose 45hp right off the top? The average loss of HP to the wheels on a dyno is 15-20% That 5400 you claim implies you do all the work yourself? Yes And from everything Ive read about the two engines (1nz and 2zz) they 'should' almost bolt it place of one another. If that is the case there should be at least 200 engine swaped Yaris's out there. |

^ the engine harness isn't a couple of hundred more like a g. and make sure you got a vin# from the donor car for the harness......

theres plenty of corolla's and late model pontiacs available within 400km of my location and yes 2ZZ - ebay isnt the be-all-end-all of shopping but there HAS been plenty of ECU on there for a dime.
there isnt a pile of yaris swaps out there cause apparently its exhorbitantly expensive. guess thats why theres so many with FI. I priced out an engine to replace my tired 3.1 in my malibu - the engines at the yard I called came complete, tranny and all including wiring to the ECU but not the ECU itself.

Hello all,
I am eager to soon own a Yaris hatchback. I think it is the perfect hatchback in many ways. Once I get one I want to attend some local SCCA events and hopefully get involved. Back to the topic, I don't see the practicality of a 1zz or 2zz swap. It wouldn't be cost effective and it couldn't have been explained any better earlier that a 200hp+ Yaris wouldn't perform well on a track. A swap car should be like discovering an Easter egg in software, it was "meant to be there". Toyota used to produce the Starlet into the late 90's which had a 4EFTE? After production ended of the Starlet I presume the Vits aka Yaris Echo etc. came about. Isn't there a Vitz turbo? If still in production, What year(s)? I could call a reputable importer I know and see if he knows much about them. |

I'm actually really debating this. Hopefully next month I'll be able to look at my expenses and chains and see what I can do for engine swaps. The 2ZZ-ge does look like good compatability... but idk, Trying to research what other engines you could possibly pop in.

Haha, Well, I've done alittle more diggin', The 4AGE can also fit in, the only problems would be the tight fitting of it all. it is a 1.6l engine, and you can get about 135hp+ out of it, so it's a decent boost before you do anything else to it such as i/e/b etc etc. Input?

pink wheels are cool
|
4agze could work also depending on fit

Tranny +/- $1000, then you need labor +/- $1500, mounts, wiring & miscellanious +/- $2000. Now you have invested +/- $7400 & you have a 180 flywheel hp Yaris which equals 145 to the wheels. Now this is all asuming you can get everything done for this amount of $$. Now how many people on this forum are going to spend half of the total cost of their car on a swap? Consider that Blitz & Greedy have a SC & ZPI has a turbo kit for less than half of what a swap cost & only 3 owners have gone in the forced induction route! Guys WE bought a INEXPENSIVE CAR! The possibility of any of us spending $7400 is slim to none. If you wanted more power you needed to start with a better platform. If you want a more powerfull Yaris a Turbo Kit for $3200, a S/C kit for $2500 or a N2O kit for $550 is the best way right now. I am not saying that a swap is never going to be done. But the $ per HP value is just not there. If you have $7400 to spend on your Yaris here is a plan for you: ZPI kit $3200, Pistons & rods $1200, install $1000, These $5400 will get you 200hp + to the wheels. Why swap? This is a good point. I own a 2004 XA (a larger yaris basically), there is plenty of power to dig out of this little engine with less stress than a swap. S/C is definitly the way to go due to the VVT-I the turbo will hand grenade the engine. It is relatively easy to push 200hp out of the 1nz-fe and at only ~2200lbs thats plenty. I was at ~145hp with an intake, exhaust and computer chip. (Until the catastrophic meltdown of a spark plug , I guess trial and error). Some bolt ons and a S/C should do the trick. |
