The 1JZ-GTE was designed to improve performance and fuel efficiency. There were only JDM versions of the motors. The motor can be found from the 4th/5th Gen Toyota Chaser

Aftermarket for this engine is stronge as well. The 1JZ-GTE is a power house. Tuned versions can product more power overstock. 650PS is completely doable on the stock bottom end. This is alot of power for tiny cars like the Toyota Corolla.

A 1JZ-GE With vvti

Pop your hood with a 1JZ-GE. The 1JZ-GE was a 2.5L (2491cc) aluminum/iron block piston motor. The motor was an oversquared designed inline 6. The engine came from Toyota’s JZ power train. Like the 2JZ-GE, the 1JZ-GE was produced from 1990- 2007. The bore was 86mm and the stroke was 71.5 mm. The 1JZ-GE output were between 168-197hp, with up to 185 ft•lb of torque at a given rpm. High power ratings depended on the engine itself. The 1JZ-GE had a compassion ratio of 10.0:1. The motor was designed to improve high NA performance and later fuel efficiency. There were JDM versions of the motor with several appearances and vvt-i updated setups. 

Aftermarket for this motor is sufficient. The 1JZ-GE itself can be taken to new NA heights for NA builds. Quality customed parts for this motor can be found via internet. The 1JZ-GE can be modified to handle up to 250PS.

A Built 2JZ-GTE For 800hp

A JZ swap is one of sickest and craziest swaps that Toyota has to offer. A JZ swap could never be a direct swap. The wiring setup is very challenging and the swap is not similar to any other setups. All the proper equipment from the donated car including a suitable or modified transmission is needed for a successful swap. These swaps requires a lot of customization including customed motor mounts, electronics/ECU, suspension, custumed high proformance axles, shifter, fuel system, cooling system, A/C/power steering, intake/exhaust, suspension/brakes, and tires. Turbo or supercharged applications may require upgraded injectors, upgraded ECU, a blot on or customed built manfold, fuel pump, and boost controller. Every motor and transmission has a weakness. It is very important to address your motor and transmission for weaknesses before modifying them. 

This swap "MAY" require a proper chassis conversion. JZ swaps were done to many Corollas, Tercel, Celicas, Yaris, Scions, Ford Mustangs, Mitsubishi Eclipses, etc. The JZ Series has a large aftermarket. Many custom fitted parts can be found via importperformanceparts, turbokits, driveshaftshop, gatorracingaxles, ptuning, car-part, or maxpeedrods. Prices can be customed and compared for your likings.

3RZ-FE  Cylinder Heads

The aftermarket for this motor is pretty strong. A modified NA or forced inducted 3RZ-FE can make some serious power in a Corolla. Like most build motors, the 3RZ-FE has a record with over 1000+hp. They can be tuned to produce decent power overstock with monstrous torque. A daily tuned 3RZ-FE is good for 225PS. This is possible with a decent turbo/TRD Supercharger kit or NA build. 

A 3RZ-FE Alpine Supercharger Kit

The Alpine Supercharger kit for the 3RZ-FE were made available for the 1995-2004 Toyota Tacomas. Power can be made anywhere from 182-225hp with up to 240+ lbs of torque. Other electronics and engine modifications can increase power. 

Rumors have it that the supercharger can be rebuilt to produce more power. Based on the year of engine, the supercharger is completely bolt-on. Like other TRD supercharger kits, parts can be customed fitted.  Minor customization is needed for this swap.

#2AZFE #2AZFTE #2AZFZE

A 2AZ-FE With vvti

Another perfect engine swap for any fitted Corolla would be a fresh 2007+ 2AZ-FE from a 2nd Gen Corolla XRS or 1st Gen Scion TC. The 2AZ-FE was a 2.4L all-aluminum block piston motor from Toyota’s AZ power train.
