Engine Swap

rkcarguy · 01-15-2006, 11:56 PM

I'm an engine importer of Japanese engines. Looked at the xB's a little and it's a different configuration with the rear mounted exhaust(makes alot more sense when you think about it), but there has to be something that will swap into this....................

3SGTE? 4AGE 20V?

1ZZ works...

scionbox123 · 03-03-2006, 02:47 PM

wat car is it from and the spec please

hotbox05 · 03-03-2006, 04:13 PM

1zz has 130-140 hp it comes in celica's , corolla's , matrix's

hotbox05 · 03-03-2006, 04:14 PM

4ag could fit. 3sgte is way too huge.

4efte fits but I hate that motor.

the brave little toaster · 03-03-2006, 04:21 PM

4ag isnt bad idea.

Hell, that might be worth doing, $800-$1200 for the engine...but with the engine and tranny, what other parts would you need for everything to run smoothly?

my friend is going to put 2zz into his Echo this Summer...

this is a pic he sent me of how tight will the 2zz fit into the Echo.

i hate 2zz's.

4ag's are cool but theyre old and the 20v would be impossible to be legal in cali , and any parts for them are horrendously expensive.

Wraith is doing the 2ZZ swap!?! Man, his camry is one heck of a sleeper.

I'll take the Starlet that comes w/ the 4AGE also!

bB626 · 03-03-2006, 09:06 PM

yeah, Wraith is doing that swap this summer, after he takes a vacation.

Does anyone know what happened with the engine swap in the Echo? from the 1nz to the 2zz....

PCH · 07-25-2009, 03:16 PM

How do people find threads like this

Enjoy the pic:

Justin (wraith) ended up putting a 1ZZ-FE into the Echo and sold it to a friend of his. I talk to Justin quite a bit, Mechanically I know what needs to be done,The wiring isn't too hard but it can be done. Last time I saw the Echo it was running, and the bugs were being worked out, and a supercharger was slated to be installed, but that was like 2 years ago, I don't know the current status of that car.

Also, Justin (wraith) is the one who also figured out how to mate the C160 6 speed to the 1NZ-FE.

There's a thread about swaps over on yaris world. Quite a bit of info on the 1zz swap.

4age works. Notch 1" from both sides of the rail, and a new cross member.

And throw it $10K for the start

crxgames · 08-02-2009, 02:13 AM

$10k is what it'd cost for the shop that actually does the swap to do it. I already got a price quote on it. That includes a full megasquirt tune as well. If you did it yourself, you could save quite a bit, but it can definitely be done for under $10k.

859Toaster · 08-02-2009, 01:50 PM

i'd say you can do everything you need for 2K if you do it all your self. Motor trans will run you about 1000, megasquirt, exhaust, and a baseline tune, beer, smokes, and pizza for the weekend should take care of the rest of the funds.
