Toyota ZZ: Everything You Need to Know | Specs and More

Article: dustrunnersauto.com/toyota-zz...
You may have heard of the Toyota AZ engine. It was designed for Toyota’s economy cars and they used it in a wide range of their vehicles. Unlike the AZ engine, the ZZ engine family is built for performance. It was the first four cylinder engine from Toyota to use both an aluminum block and an aluminum cylinder head which saves a ton of weight. The most notable application for this engine is the Lotus Elise. My name is Bryce with Dust Runners Automotive Journal, and this is everything you need to know about the Toyota ZZ.

had the 1zz for almost 18 years and eventually the piston cooling channels clogged leading to the dreaded oil burning issue. had a 2zz with aftermarket intake and exhaust headers along with exhaust system installed. Also went from 5 to 6 spd. 114whp to ~196whp with stock ECU (aftermarket ecu would achieve a bit more power). More than enough power for daily. 23yrs with the celica and still a joy to drive.

I just recently got rid of my 06 XRS and this videos made me nostalgic of how good that engine was to me. Only problem I had with that engine was the water pump and belt tensioner going out at around 45,000 miles. This engine loves to live in the higher echelons of the RPM range, so those components will give in if you constantly drive in that range. Plus climate could have a significant impact, as well. A cold air intake and a really good exhaust gave her a really satisfying scream when the high cams would hit. Even building up to the high cams sounded really good and linear due to the fact that this engine makes power across the entire RPM range, with a very narrow boost when the high cams engage depending on application.

2zz was also known to have valve spring issues but this was usually only at sustained high rpm use such as racing. They also don't use cylinder liners and so require coated pistons or, better yet, iron liners to use aftermarket forged pistons, which also strengthens the block somewhat. They are also open deck engines and so not the best candidates for high boost. To bullet proof a 2zz: pistons, rods, liners, billet oil pump, valve springs. Do all that and over 350hp and over 8000rpm reliably are possible.

[@JosePedro-rx4hr]

The problem in the 2zz is it's advantage against older engines, aluminiun block, lighter but fragile

[@177SCmaro]

@@JosePedro-rx4hr You can make an aluminum block strong. The Ford 5.0 Coyote block, for example, can handle around 750hp and over 1000hp with thicker sleeves. Toyota just clearly never had any intent to make the 2ZZ an especially high hourspower engine.

@@177SCmaro exatly, what I like about Toyota is that they made the right engines for the wrong cars, the celica never was the fastest has anyone can see in the japonese touges, however if you put the 2zz in a 90 corolla it becomes a bullet

@@JosePedro-rx4hr The 7th gen celica needed about another 80-100hp. I know. I own one. The 2zz is a fine engine for what it and it works okay with the celica it is but its main problem is its peaky as hell and really needed either a tighter gear split and/or a 7th gear. Even when you rev it to the nuts it's still hard to stay on the big lobes. I don't think putting one in an older Corolla would make it a better or worse match - it's still a fairly light car with a rev happy little engine.

[@Electronica27]

From reading up on forums (so not super reliable but still good to keep an idea on) there's the issue of the oil pump gear (mentioned) since it's made with sintered metal, there are people that make billet and upgraded versions. The other issue is the oil pan, which is known to run dry under hard cornering, due to the lack of baffling. According to some, you can swap it with one from a 1zz oil pan, which has baffling for cornering but the negative of running dry under prolonged redline driving. (more than 2 minutes) A MASSIVE thing you missed I'd say is the MMC cylinder walls, so swapping to forged internals would also recall changing the cylinder walls to the strengthen steel found in most aluminum blocks. MMC walls CANNOT be honed so if they are scorched the walls need to be replaced, honing or boring just ruins it. This adds to the cost.

Intake, exhaust and a tune with larger injectors. Or if you have a few more dinero to spend then consider turbocharging it. Bolt on kits can be had for less than $3,000 and are quite comprehensive.

[@WPXTacoMan477]

The oil pump on the 2zz can be an issue, but another common issue is the metallurgy of the OEM intake cam, I’ve had my 2nd cyl intake cam wiped and the rocker broken as well. Celica forums and lotus forums talk a lot about this issue and some controversy over what causes it such as misaligned oil passages and the fact that the oil has to fight so much gravity to make it up hill to the highest point of the eng to reach the intake cam, as well as the lotus’ oil cooler potentially over cooling the oil to the point the viscosity is too thick for it to reach the cam. As well as the factory just had issues with the metallurgical properties of the cam itself , lending to its weak properties and inability to hold up to slightly increased performance demands. But either way, still such a great engine and good example of the composite metal matrix lending to the high durability of the castings. You hardly scratched the surface with this video man, so much you could talk about

[@jalaalcheema4823]

Bro once you change your intake cam and rockers do you think the issue of cam wiping and rocker damage will still persist? Even if you're religious with your oil changes? I'm currently dealing with this exact issue and thus its causing misfires in Lift

[@WPXTacoMan477]

@@jalaalcheema4823 it depends, first off, are you sure that the misfiring you’re having is caused due to camshaft wiping? What’s causing you to believe that is your issue? Second, if you are certain that your cam is wiped, it depends on what you replace it with. Since the original oem cams had metallurgical issues, obviously replacing with oem can lead to the same issues. Ideally, if you replace the cam and rockers , and ensure that all your oil passages are good, then you should be fine with every day driving. Maybe 🤷‍♂️ just depends on what all else is going on in the system

[@jalaalcheema4823]

I've done everything else when it comes to solving lift issues: Lift bolts OCV screen filter OCV valve/solenoid checked. Fairly new Spark plugs and coil packs are all good No CEL bro

[@jalaalcheema4823]

@WPXTacoMan477 I am quite certain because, I pulled my valve cover off and the lobe on #2 cylinder was wiped and I could feel that there was a significant ridge on the edge of the cam. After I saw that I guessed that the rocker below could be in bad shape as well. So that's what making me believe that my misfire in lift is because of cam wiping/rocker damage. However, it's a lil confusing because not all 2zz owners have cam wiping issues especially on the toyota models. This issue is prominent on the lotus model I believe, because they're tuned harder from their factory Anywho I hope I win bro🫡 fingers crossed

[@WPXTacoMan477]

@@jalaalcheema4823 definitely would be more apt to showing when you push the engine harder with the lotus so it makes sense. Have you checked tsb’s? I know there’s one for a 2000 or ‘01 model ecu that was faulty, in the misfiring symptoms category I believe

[@davewebster1627]

I have 2005 1ZZ FE which was known as a oil burner up to 2005. Toyota modified these by putting extra drain holes behind the piston rings, fitting a lower temperature thermostatic and increasing the oil level with a new dip stick. Mine has 250,000 km on it and does not use oil

[@kaeosfactory]

Adam Woodward yes yes yes.

[@wojtekpeka7481]

Well, not exactly. The main issue here was caused by bad piston design, specifically oil ports on their sides which were supposed to direct oil scraped by piston rings into the crankcase - number of these ports as well as their diameter were insufficient and because of that the oil stayed in in extremely hot spot of the cylinder for extended periods of time causing piston rings and oil itself to wear out quite quickly. The issue has been fixed however, all engines produced after 2004 were fitted with redesigned pistons and piston rings (oil capacity of the engine has been also increased by up to 0,5l), there was also a recall in 2005 for for fortunate owners which covered changing pistons, piston rings, and engine's short-block assembly (as cylinders weren't supposed to be honed/bored again due to their nikasil coating). Previous 2004 recall that covered only the piston rings change (for the old, faulty design rings) didn't really resolve the problem as those new rings were still prone to excessive wear.

I have a pontiac vibe and I'm not sure it's a 1zz fe or a 2zz ge... and I want to buy some parts that require this information. it's front wheel drive, and it's not the gt, and it's code 8 not code L so i guess it's the 1zzfe, but I'm not 100% sure, somebody can help please ? i've heard something about bolt numbers on the transmission pan ...

Can’t find any zz engines for sale in my area :(

What about 3zz-fe is it not from the same family

[@vadenummela9353]

3ZZ-FE gang assemble! I put a 3zz-fe from a 2007 corolla in my 2001 Avensis and now its the mintest mk1 Avensis on the planet.

[@bryanjones7793]

ok so my wife has a celica 1.8 vvti with the 1ZZ engine, can u answer me a question, when travelling she goes to accelerate, and not every time, but quite often revs will rise, then drop before the power picks up and car moves off quicker, am I correct in thinking clutch or is this a known thing to happen and not be an issue (sorry she only bought it about a month ago)

[@TheRazePlayz]

If it's a manual then its defo clutch slip, had this problem with a 2zz but It was super obvious that the clutch was dying.

[@daaneseine6115]

Your clutch is gone. Here's how you can test it. Drive it at slow speeds, shift into a tall gear and floor it. If it revs up and doesn't stall, the clutch is gone. If it bogs the engine and stalls, clutch is still fine.

[@reneeharewood5053]

Toyota like the 4age should have kept mods on this 2zzge instead on venturing off into economy engines gone are the days of the GT corolla

[@hgpmonero608]

I am looking at acquiring either a 1zz or a 1UZ which would be a better buy for a long term engine. Anyone here can share some advice on this as to which to go for please. Thank you.

[@arcanevoid9199]

i mean one is a 4 cylinder economy engine and one is a v8, completely different

[@loganamurray64]

Long term, as many miles as possible? The 1UZ is easily the winner, even when you include non-Toyota engines it’s very hard to beat for reliability

[@ancilsobersancil1813]

What about the 3zz

[@joebrown9621]

Only one series of performance engine Toyota ever built 😳.. No sir ree... 4AG is up there

[@howieloso]

Which engine does the 2000 Chevy Prizm

[@russelmussle7866]

1zzfe

[@rev.lazarus906]

For full-on durability, and longevity which engine do you recommend 1 or 2 ZZ from 09 to 2010

[@loganamurray64]

For reliability the 1ZZ is better. The 2ZZ wasn’t even being produced anymore in 2010, it got ended in 09 for Lotus, 06 for Toyotas own use

[@rev.lazarus906]

@@loganamurray64 Thank you very much!

[@BlatentlyFakeName]

They both died because emissions regulations got updated and these engines couldn't meet them. The later zz engines aren't as strong for that reason, nowhere near as powerful. Lotus were using a supercharged 2ZR until recently when they ended production.

[@loganamurray64]

@@BlatentlyFakeName Yeah, the 2ZZ especially was one dirty ass engine as far as emissions went, at least for the 1 and 2ZZ though the actual power didn't change, just the way it was measured. the 3 and 4ZZ's were definitely far from performance engines though.

[@TheRealWALLABI]

Why didn't you talk, at least a little bit, about the 3ZZ and the 4ZZ? Those small economy engines, little brothers of the 1ZZ with which they share the top-end, the block and many accessories are often forgotten, but there is something interesting about them : they have some pretty decent potential, and they can easily be fitted with 1ZZ (and sometimes 2ZZ) parts which can yield up to 30-40 hp gains with a good intake and a tune. With a turbo kit, the small 1.6 liter 3ZZ, which normally puts out 90-95 hp at the wheels (rated at 109 bhp) can easily achieve 210-225 whp. We're talking about a 130-hp gain that can be done on stock internals! A small economy engine that can have its power output multiplied by 2.5 on stock internals is something that should have been talked about...

[@TheBlueCorolla]

I think your reply is more informative than mine 😂 😂

[@kotymccallister5150]

I would have liked to see the whole zz family Built with high compression, made to rev high, and given vvtli lol

[@maxwozniak7988]

"turbo kit"

[@BlatentlyFakeName]

The 1zz is a better engine than the 3 and 4. Much stronger internals. They were weakened/lightened to meet updated emissions laws.

[@TBsoftair]

@@BlatentlyFakeName 1zz stock rods are still way too weak to handle forced induction at anything higher than 7-8 psi though. Better go with proper forged rods.

[@Trickey1]

Interesting, but I couldn't keep up with the speed, could you slow down a touch next time.

[@leanahmech4453]

help me i think im lost, do we have two types of 2zz?

[@loganamurray64]

Yes but no. All 2ZZ’s are identical internally but there are some differences. Early 2ZZ’s have different lift bolt’s, 2004.5 and later 2ZZ’s have secondary air injection and there are a bunch of different tuning differences depending on year, make, model and location. The only actual performance difference is arguably the air injection but not because of the air pump itself, the exhaust port supposedly flows just barely worse than the non-air injected 2ZZ’s because the air injected ones have a small hump in the port. It’s not even a 5% flow difference and really doesn’t effect performance enough to care

[@rifyoursemaregedze9267]

How much is 1zz engine

[@ArmandoRodriguez-yv6el]

Can i fit the 2zz engine in a toyota corolla 07 without any major mods if any?

[@loganamurray64]

It’ll go right in with the C60 (6spd) trans bolted to it

[@user-vm3ls2sx8l]

​@@loganamurray64 yeah it'll go in but the wiring is all different because 2005+ corolla use drive by wire instead of a cable throttle. Makes the installation way more complicated and costly.

[@user-vm3ls2sx8l]

Forget it man. I have an 08 that recently trashed an engine, and ended up just putting in another 1zz. Unfortunately after 2005 they started using a different system for the throttle (drive by wire instead of cable) and it makes the installation ten times harder. You're gonna have to pay a mechanic who REALLY knows what he's doing and even then by the time you're done your wallet will NOT be happy.
