xB Engine swap w/ same year tC?
So I've got a 2011 xB and I was wondering if it would be possible to swap the engine/trans from a same year tC into it and what modifications would need to be done.
If anyone has any ideas or has done it before please let me know.

I haven't looked into the tC for a swap yet. I am curious to why your thinking about this? the performance or economic gains are minimal. I have started researching putting the Camry V6 into the xB2.
Aside from different mounts, axles, computer, transmission, harness, computer, and the Camry is 2 inches wider. every thing else looks easy.

New motor mounts, harness, ECU, and the usual little fussy bits. It's enough different that it requires a fair amount of work for very little gains. If you are looking for a bit better economy the transmission can be swapped on to the 2.4 but requires adaption to do it. I believe Dezod made a kit for putting the 6 speed manual in place of the 5 speed.
