I never thought your way didn't work, my argument from the beginning of this was that the mounts are similar and the differences are only transmission specific. I know your way works, but we don't want to tell everyone they "need" mounts and increase the cost of the swap for no reason.
On another note......you race too?! What type and where? |

All that said, I want no part of screwing with matching keys to ECUs and stuff. The non-immo xD ECU will work just fine as long as the Yaris' key transponder K-line (brown wire) is disconnected. (Also needs to be verified) Last edited by CrankyOldMan; 04-24-2016 at 05:38 PM. |

Holy crap, I've got a LONG way to go in gathering parts. I was planning on this being just a one-and-done weekend project, but it looks like there's some serious issues to address yet.
So to summarize the gearbox-and-mounts issues, here's my understanding. Please confirm/deny as appropriate.

I found a pair of 09 Corollas at a you-pick yard an hour away. One had already been canibalized from the firewall forward, the other had the valve cover removed and was otherwise untouched. I suspect it had flood damage or something, because all of the accessories and externals were in REALLY bad shape. I picked up the injectors, intake manifold, throttle body and coil packs. Hopefully some of them will be salvageable, but if not, they will serve as cores. I got everything 50% off with the purchase of a 5 gal bucket for $5. Every sunday is "bucket day", so I'll be sure to stop out when the next 09 Corolla hits the lot (there's one waiting to go out). The passenger side tire was rusted to the hub, otherwise I would have grabbed the calipers and brackets.
I also ordered the engine mount last week, so that should be here in short order. I can't find a source for the shift cables, otherwise I would just get all of the brackets and be done with it. |

So I went and organized things in the shed yesterday, turns out that the reason the '09 Corolla was so badly rusted was that it was actually an '05 (1ZZ engine). Regrettably, that means the only thing compatible from my trip last weekend is the injectors. I did score a MAF sensor this weekend, so I've got a spare in case the super cheap one from Amazon marketplace doesn't work.

So i came to the conclusion that there is more to the wiring then shown in the diagram,probably to prevent people from stealing and reprogramming your car. (the car would crank but would not fire up) After this i decided to use a Canadian 2011 scion xd ecu with my 08 yaris immobilizer computer.This is where i screwed up ,when i de pinned the connector I elongated one of the pins(imi) so that it was no longer making contact with the ecu .(car would fire up for a second then die.) Thinking that the immobilizer ecu was incompatible I changed it to a 2011 immobilizer computer and key but still it had a communication error code . Then i retraced what i did and realized i needed new imi and imo pins .After I replaced them the car started up right away.I think I tried to start the car too many times with the screwed up communication lines because it locked me out,So it may work with a scion xd ecu and a 08 yaris immobilizer computer. CAUTION -After you get your ecu you have 10 tries to start the car before you are completely locked out from the immobilizer ecu.So it is very important to get everything hooked up right otherwise you could be buying another immobilizer computer. |

Cranky whats Up!!! Haven't been online lately but any info let me Know, I swapped out my 2009 XD 2ZRFE and dropped in a 2011 Corolla 2ZRFE it's the same but I'm working on the internals of the engine, port polish, cams, crank, rods and High comp pistons.
Also got my ECM reflashed and I'm taking the engine up to 7,100rpm with a nice powerband

Did you use an OEM ECM? I haven't heard of anyone actually reflashing it and showing the results. I'm really excited to see what you come up with. I've also got some terrible plans to get a turbo kit together for the 2ZR, but that's a few years down the road. |

Just an update--she runs like a champ! The exhaust still needs work, but the ECM has learned how to make her sing. I have to replace the coolant, as well as the fill neck and hoses, but that's all going to happen in the next few days. The DC sports intake manifold doesn't quite fit, so that also needs to be adjusted.
She also really likes to pull the race trailer. Toyota seemed to match the engine to the Corolla very well, so there's plenty of power available for cargo and passengers. |

Bump for front page update (custom plate coming soon!).
I'm still loving this swap. She pulls hard all the way to redline, hits 70 without breaking a sweat, and wants to go faster. The only issue I've had so far is the alternator pulley. It's an OAD type, and seems to fail pretty regularly. The used OEM alternator I bought lasted almost a month before the pulley died. I bought an aftermarket to replace it, and it's starting to fail as well. I've got the tools and parts to rebuild the first one, just have to make the time to do it. |

Congrats, man. This swap is so cool. That license plate is awesome.

So what did you do to get the immobilizer to communicate to the the ecu?
This is the only part that deters me from doing this swap on mine

If you need parts for the swap, ArmstrongRacing and I are putting together a "DIY kit" of OEM parts to make the hardest stuff to find a little easier to get in one shot. |
