Unfortunately, no. That kit is only for the 1.8L 2ZR-FE, which isn't available in the US as a factory option. It's entirely possible to do the swap though, just have to squeeze the details out of those that have successfully done it. =)

The turbo would fit. It is rather small so wouldn't be a problem. You would have to do mods for the piping and manifold at the least.

WorkTL · 05-05-2015, 03:04 PM

Will the Scion xa turbo kit fit better?

fnkngrv · 05-05-2015, 03:07 PM

To a point, but you still will run into some modifications. That is why the Zage kit has been so popular. If not going the Zage it is probably just a smart thing to custom build.

If I ever blow my built motor and manage to not be skinned alive by the wife I would try a 2gr swap. I think that would be epic. It is a hell of a mill. Makes my Highlander MOVE!

Thanks for the info! Where can I buy a Zage kit, sir?

Try contacting Garm first. Cali_yaris.

The frame needs to be cut for clearance on the pulley side of the engine.

hey can you explain more ? cut the frame how ? and can my 5spd 1nz-fe gearbox fit on without changing bell housing ? can you give a me a step by step??

Bluevitz-rs · 07-28-2015, 01:27 PM

The motor is bigger so you have to make room for the belts an pulleys. You would have to change bell housing on the transmission too.

so what would be better to do one time ? a 1zz or 2zr i need your knowledge if they both are the same amount of fabricating i would go big one time

Bluevitz-rs · 07-28-2015, 05:47 PM

The 1ZZ was never an option for any NCP chassis as far as I know. I don't know much about the 2ZR as far as size but it was an option in 2006+ Yaris so it might be a little shorter than the 1ZZ.

RagnaCaT · 07-28-2015, 06:12 PM

Let me chime in 1zz is possible with no cutting to fit it, but not a great swap cuase of the fabrication involed and wiring rather drop a 2zz.... The 1zz tranny or housing is required. Cutting the chassis is required if you are planning on a 6spd...
The 2ZRFE is almost a drop in swap and you can use the stock tranny...

Let's make sure we're on the same page here. They're talking about a fist gen chassis.

Ooooh! ok So it's the other way around, 1zz wiring is similar to the first gen as the ECHO we get here in PR and its the almost the same demensions 2zz swaps are around

Bringing this thread, back from the dead...
in all honesty, I've read about a RAV4 2ar being used to churn out some serious hp in a TC (approx. 800) anyone consider a 2ar swap into one of our tiny cars? its a 2.5 so it'd be kinda cramped. just a seriously considered idea.
