This 2ZZGE seriously blew up! Check out the damage!

[@DeepRacer-zr4yp]

Holy mother of God. Never seen this much destruction on a 2zz powertrain. Engine+Transmission+Drive Shafts all done und busted. You're right propably a mount or hanger shifted and destroyed the trans+Drive Shafts but the main cause was the broken/bend rod inside the engine

[@thebritishhippie9735]

I literally said to myself "how does that fuckin' happen" 2 seconds before you did lol. I understand how bad my issue could have been now. Good luck to you! Your 2zz videos helped me a lot when trying to figure out my 2zz spyder swap. Great to see the two of you making content again! :)

[@2zzlow]

Pretty sure it was poor fuel. I commute in this car every day and tracked it multiple times….mixing cheap and expensive fuel probably did it. Commutes got arco and track days got shell

[@bamabonkers]

That is one for the records. I have never seen so much engine carnage in all my life. Truly a very big bummer.

[@backyardgnome4190]

You got this guys, excited for the vids. Good to see you two together again

[@Pallidus_Rider]

In the meantime, I'm still daily driving my 2003 Toyota Corolla CE with 1ZZ-FE (odometer maxed out in 2018) 😅

[@DeepRacer-zr4yp]

going strong

[@N1withaskillet]

I suspect the lightweight flywheel and LSD are what killed the engine and transaxle. The mass of the OE FW helps protect the engine from shock loading and an open diff is less stress on the whole driveline. It was fun while it lasted though!

[@JoseLopez-mk5zw]

When I had my celica gts I went hunting for a 2zz at the salvage yard and I saw two 2zz blown up in different yards so i took the celica to the scrap metal. Got me 1zzfe celica Scotty kilmer was right about 2zz-ge engine Sorry for your lost 😢

[@DeepRacer-zr4yp]

just took my 2zz all the way to lift today. God I love that sound

[@andrea981]

Oh wow, the connecting rod of piston number 2 brake and destroyed the engine block. Yes you are right that the fuel mixture can be at fault because may have caused detonation, but you should have noted engine knocking sound I think.

[@eaxtxide]

That fucking blows Sebastián. Look forward to seeing more videos now with the rebuild.

[@Joshosaurus422]

Jesus. How many RPMs was it turning when it went kaboom?

[@JoseBrisenoJr-hj1pu]

A nasty valve job that went AWOL

[@jorgerea939]

The engine really did some extra damage on its way out 🤨

[@darrendent8288]

I miss my 9th gen XRS.

[@BinaryPrime]

Do you think the lack of harmonic balancer had anything to do with the destruction or do you think it would have happened with or without the lightweight crank pulley?

[@googledunce9872]

Damn. So it let go of one of the engine mounts and then yanked on the trans too?

[@lomfmur]

My bet is seized wrist pin, I dont see anything else doing that much damage

[@rushnerd]

How the hell DOES that happen. Did the timing chain snap?

[@DeepRacer-zr4yp]

maybe, a proper teardown and aftermath of that engine would be super interesting

[@brinho109]

wow, all this carnage. Any idea what initiated it? You take good care of the car so this is a bit shocking.

[@lomfmur]

292k miles is a lotta miles for a 2ZZ

[@RafasGarage]

Let me see when i can pull up

[@asomafw]

gonna need a new computer and rear differential

[@KhaoticKalm]

6:28 I’m with him, just duct tape it

[@chrispapanastasopoulos9192]

Would you buy a 2003 Pontiac Vibe GT for $800 with 157K on the odo? Good deal?

[@PlayinWithMahWii]

Where's this? How much rust?

[@JoseBrisenoJr-hj1pu]

Just need a 1zzfe

[@ComplexityMCSG]

All too familiar with having to talk to Mico. Great guy but only transmission troubles when I'm talking to him

[@diegogonzalez7279]

Thats it a mayor flaw with the 2zz it can be running fine and poof there it goes . Thats why people building towards FE engines instead GE those FE can withstand so much abuse is incredible

[@alrichlosper6973]

I know you said you did a very light pull but this looks like a heavy pull and money shift because the valve is broke kiss the pistons and the one piston broke hitting that hole in the back

[@2zzlow]

Money shifting is destroying the oil pump gear. I still have to take that apart.

[@mxkcrm]

Anyone near 90260 need a spare 2zz? I planned on rebuilding as a living room furniture art piece but its not happening Lmk

[@dcfish2620]

Does it have air injection?

[@mxkcrm]

@@dcfish2620that was after 2004 right? Then no, this one came from a 2000 Gts

[@Joshosaurus422]

Add the supercharger and avoid smog... Use my address and register it here in TN 😂 + tags are only $29.50/year

[@willie8649]

Dude that sucks man!😮 Listen, I have been looking for this part everywhere #17610-22020 do you know any scrap yards that might have xrs corollas, I’m in Southern California.

[@Wind_slash0]

Rip. Part out and get a grc 🫡 edit: oh supercharger. Dont get the grc just yet 😏

[@2zzlow]

I’ve driven my friends gr corolla…I can’t see myself paying $40k for that car. My 6th gen Celica is way faster

[@Wind_slash0]

Oh ya, in a straight line, a supercharged v6 in a ~2600lb car will be faster. Considering you're in cali - awd is pointless anyway.
