has anyone thought of doing a motor swap from the tc into there xb
1.5 to a 2.4???

too big , but it would be nice

other than the echo(duh) do you think there are any cars on the toyota line-up that mite have a motor that would fit?

how about a lotis elise motor???? or a nice turbo mr2 motor or what about aSuzuki Hayabusa

There has been celica motors put into echos, so the 1.8L should fit, but very tight. :shock:

to put the 2zz in you need to cut the firewall.

a busa moter not a bad idea i have seen 300-400 hp turbo busas so it would be cool. but hooking it up to the tranny could be hard

isn't the lotus elise motor the same one that is on the Celica GTS?

take a 2zz and put it in the trunk...u'll have a rwd box...OH YEA :twisted:

the lotus elise motor is them same engine in the acura integra. type-r i believe.

the motor is a the 2zz.

look under engine here in the table http://www.lotusfury.com/elise.php

the older model elise has an integra type-r engine in them. look at the elise's they have for sale.

I think those are aftermarket swaps... I might be wrong, though....

would it be posible to put a evo 4 banger in an xB?

nope they did used to run a b18~ (d isit?) before the 2zz

B18C jdm type r swap, ive never heard that the elise came with type r motors thats weird, wonder if i could get a honda motor in the scion, then i could get some power outta this _____, honda vtec is my kung-fu

These are the pictures of our 1999 Elise, available for track use only, we also have a Type R motor freshly built to go into this car if there is any interest.



I dont think that they actually mean Honda Type R motor, theres alot of Type R things ex: Jaguar S-type Type R

the evo motor would present a whole new area or problems....first being its 2 litre size second, the awd, i know bbs can be awd from japan, howver i dont think the systems are anywhere close to being compatable, why dont people explore the options of this motor, build it, sleeeve the block and spend some time really planning internal mods and who knows, could be a lot better than any of us can imagine

Yes they do the Elise came with an ITR motor new.
The new ones come with the K20 RSX-R motor.

I think the main question should be: why?
