Finally read thru all this.

Been working on a 1nz swap into one of my tercels and it was pretty easy. So I naturally thought...whats the next evolution?

Im a bit weird, I like to keep my cars the same displacement as they come, or smaller.

But a 2zr in a tercel would be a monster. I might even consider one for the Yaris as I dont nearly drive the same mileage as I used to. It makes 107whp, 110wtq now. But to gain what, 20-30numbers more and keep using regular gas is looking mighty appealing over finishing my turbo build and run high octane.

I would have to source a wrecked xD from copart to even consider the swap into the yaris that way I get everything i need

All good points. As someone who pieced the swap together over a period of 6-9 months, buying a whole donor xD really is the way to go. Assuming you can get the right planetary alignment, of course. An MT xD is really hard to find in the wild, much less totaled with no front end damage.

Found a few semi locally with minor damage that "runs and drives" 1 of them is currently at $90 LOL

I know in the first few posts it says you need an 08-09 xD harness but I've seen PDF for 08-10 xD wiring. Ive also picked up a manual trans harness from a '10 xD.

Are these harnesses the same as the 08-09 in everyone's experiences?

Hello fellow Ontario Canuck. I am also in the process of collecting parts for this swap, all I have right now is a 2014 MT ECU with key lol this is a "back burner" swap I'd like to do in the future so there is no rush. These xDs are pretty rare sights in junkyards too.

I hope the xD ECU plays nice with my 3rd gen.(immobilizer excepting of course).

Has anyone seen my old yaris floating around for sale?

As much as it would suck to cannibalize that well sorted car, it has everything you need for the swap already, including a shortened Tercel front left axle to avoid the bind that some swaps get.

May be worth searching, I bet it isn't listed for much

MT engine harness seems to be the hardest thing to come by that I do not have. I would have had one but the junkyard I pulled the ECU from wouldn't let me buy just the harness as it "came with the engine", guy was an ass about it too. So I cut the ziptied key off the steering column and pocketed it when I went out to pull the ECU lol.

thankfully my yaris has no imobilizer so i dont need to muck with that crap, i got the harness, ecu and right side mount, the rest of the car was pretty trashed so i dint trust the other mounts

Lol, I plan on doing what MCM did and just holding the original key next to the barrel or take the key apart and stick the module chip on the barrel permanently behind the column covers. All in theory of course.

Its back. Its getting passed around like crazy, this is the second or third time I've seen it listed and its always by a different person.

I've been eyeing all these 2zr swap threads and think my time has come: My 07 HB's auto transmission finally gave up the ghost (250k og miles, stuck in neutral/drive) and I am heavily considering this swap with my eye on a donor 09 XD that has a manual. So it'll be a double swap for me: 1NZ>2ZR & Auto>Man.

I had a couple questions that weren't quite clear from reading the thread:

1. ABS / Speed signal - Will I need to move over ABS from the XD to get the right speed signals to the ECM? The Yaris has no ABS.

2. Axles - If I'm swapping to the XD trans, I assume I can reuse the Yaris axles?

Thanks!

Not to curb your enthusiasm for a swap but are you certain the tranny has given up. 2 months ago my other automatic car was stuck in gear. I had it towed to the shop and checked out. All that was wrong was the shift cable seized. Mechanic removed it, soaked it in a lubricant for 24hrs and reinstalled.
250k is really early for a transmission failure unless it's really been beat on and neglected.

For sure it isn't the shift cable. I actually disconnected the shift cable from the trans and attempted shifting by hand at the trans itself. It's like it's hitting a wall when trying to shift to reverse from neutral. I also confirmed it's not the brake interlock either. Shift position switch tests fine too

Do y'all want to see another 2zr swap or not? Hahaha
