Default tc engine with rwd and awd in japan. yup its true

the tc engine is also in japans estima, they are awd or rwd. some tuners have them supercharged also. might be able to see what mods they do to these engines to get ideas. its also in the euro audis that trd is starting mods for.

Estima=also sold as the Previa. I think it's FWD not RWD. Hybrid model is also available (2AZ-FXE). Is the Estima mid-engine like the old USDM Previa?

The 2AZFE is also available on the:
Blade, Alphard, Camry, Rav4, Avensis Sedan/Wgn (2AZ-FSE)

Toyota is starting to use dual VVT-i. A new 2.0L engine (3ZR-FE) has this new technology and may be available on the Euro-Corolla to compete in WRC races...likely turboCharged.
