It's hard to say for certain, as all three-cylinder engines vibrate more their four-cylinder counterparts. In the G16E-GTS, Toyota has tried to reduce this with tuned balance shafts and improved engine mounts, but some vibration over time is normal. Ultimately, time will tell how well these engines hold up and depends how they're driven. Are you thinking of buying a GR Yaris of GR Corolla?
Hey @nathane7964 It's overall, a pretty impressive package. Of course though, no engine is perfect and this one is more highly strung than others being a 3 cylinder power house. Are you looking to buy a GR Yaris or GR Corolla? Was there anything specific you wanted to know more about with the engine?
We don't make cams ourselves but we're a distributor of Kelford. We make rocker retainers that pair nicely when doing a cam upgrade. Are you looking to upgrade your cams? denstoj.com.au/collections/parts/products/g16e-gts-yaris-gr-rocker-retainer-kit-by-denstoj
Awesome information, thanks guys👏🏻👌🏻
No worries, glad you found it helpful.
The sealant you should use is threebond 1207B
I imagine it's similar to what we're using. What makes you say that? Thanks for the input.
does the 3 cylinder vibrate after a year or 2 like other 3 cylinder from toyota?

How do you rate these engines, mechanically?

Did you guys do cams?

What mod needs to be done?
Our rocker retainers :) ua-cam.com/video/V4IDYBl5LaE/v-deo.htmlsi=_dHqsE4ohUgiSYiB
What did we do in this video fellas ?
Removed the timing case so we could find a seal from the tappet cover that we dropped when installing our rocker retainers. 🤦♂️
