Dude, I thought the same! So bada$$ with all of our snow... Hmmmmm... I now gotta go searching for one... This conversion would be so simple, cheap parts, priceless fun.
Chasing big power figures is expensive, more power to the people that do. Nothing against it, but there’s also fun to be had in cheap nuggets for your average Joe too.
I, for one, really appreciate that you guys have stayed true to the original formula. Modify cars that are within most people's grasp. Keep up the great content guys. Thanks!
With heat soak being an issue... go back to your roots with an old school mod, "water squirters for the top mount"... activate them either with an arcade style switch mounted under the accelerator pedal or a button on the steering wheel for low tech... OR using the Haltech once air temps get to a certain temp
Great car! Love the idea! Actually the Toyota VVT-I engines are fully variable, not just on/off cam control systems. They have spool valves at the back (AZ) or the front (ZZ) of the engine's head that is responsible for the control. Range is 40° crank angle. They will provide better driveablity, and down low, it helps the charging system to come to life.
Was coming in to also say this, it’s a pwm solenoid, and depending on the exact engine the Toyotas range from 30-60 degrees of sweep on the cam. Even more low end power can be had from tuning that correctly.
He may have been talking about the polarity of the pwm signal, turn off as in pull down rather than pull up. So 0 duty cycle is full on and max duty cycle is full off.
Well, thanks guys.. I’m now the proud owner of a free rav 4 to work on. Never built a car let alone fixed much… but here I go .. 3 door 97 manual rav4.clutch is cooked, leaks more oil than it uses fuel, but you have inspired my madness! I’m excited.
It’s because of the way the awd system works. WRX’s need a different style driving to take advantage of the awd system. In WRX’s you need to setup corners to have the whole car in a slight powerslide throttling the power to obtain the perfect exit. Where the RAV4 will be more forgiving because it is front wheel biased giving the driver big error margins if the weight transfer is not correct.
@@VanquishGlory First and second generation Rav4s have 50/50 3 differential AWD systems the same as the Celica GT4, the difference is it's built like an SUV and it can take more of a beating than a stock WRX which has tiny suspension components and no ground clearance in comparison. I've broken literally everything on a WRX including a sway bar. I can't even remember replacing a ball joint on a Rav4 doing the same events.
@@criticalevent i always thought they had a manual locking feature to 50/50 split the torque, if not they we based on viscous coupling or clutch packs that locked when the front and rear spun at different speeds?
Best channel. Thanks for staying true to your OG selves and vision for your videos. It’s sad seeing other big car channels go in drastically different directions and people announcing their departures. Thanks for years of projects!
This really is amazing car. You can get engines everywhere, relatively low boost, ethanol and close to 200kw at the all 4 wheels is insane. I want one now. 👌
My mom had one with the 1.8l 150hp engine (sadly auto) and it was also fun. Did do amazing awd drifts on the snow. Those are really good cars, hence their value. Here in europe they already fetch a good premium because here were not that many sold. A Toyota dealer 2 years ago asked me if we still have it because he wants to buy it back. He has so many customers waiting for one.
I just love the builds you guys do! Taking daily drivers, getting a bit more omph out of it, and making a fun car to roam around in. Nothing over the top. Love it! It's possible for all of us to do this :D :D
Part of the power magic on the K series is how well the factory head flows and to a lesser extent the intake as well. They are certainly strong but it's the volumetric efficiency that lets the turbo multiply power enough to take advantage of that strength
Love what you did with RAV4. I actually enjoy down to earth builds. I would love to see something similar done on a minivan like Mazda5, Mitsubishi Grandiose, Peugeot 5008 or Ford C/S Max. As a tall guy I prefer those for daily drivers but I would still like to see those with some extra power and handling.
About 12-15 years ago.. i knew guys who were buying JDM 2JZs for $800-1000 and running them totally stock internals at the drags until they blew up and throw another one in cuz it was cheaper than building a motor 😂
Yeeaaah, that always hurts to think about. All of the legendary engines that have been thrashed, if not totally destroyed, because they were plentiful..thankfully lots of 1 & 2JZ's are still out there, plus the 1, 2, & 3UZ's. Lots of B & K series left, endless LS's & LT's. I love the 1JZ/GZ/UZ engines the most. That and those sweeeet sweet AMC V8's, & Pontiac V8's. Flat plane Ferrari V8's in the Maseratis are so sick as well. Dude in town has a mid-2000's Quattroporté & it's glorious sounding. Aston V10's and of course Audi V8's & V10's are also choice! A great 426Hemi is epic as well, but I absolutely love the Chrysler 318 V8. Oh! And the Ford 289 & 302 (in a Fox Body Mustang of course!). Petrol head through & through right here! Oh yeah, Alfa's Busso, Jags & BMW's Inline 6, and the classic (50's & 60's) Ferrari V8's & V12's. Bellissimo!
@@superjimse they have a concept car with v10 in the name but that's it. i think that's just collection of gibberish text. anyway 2jz's were cheap, people didn't want to hoard them at the time. that's how the market works.
Point your windshield sprayer at your TOP mount IC and see how much difference it makes. Worked really well on the old Merkur XR4Ti I had. I used a couple spray paint can nozzles zip tied around the IC. lol
Hey guys, I’ve been building the aca 33 model with the 2azfe and getting dyno done on Wednesday! Thanks so much for doing this type of build as my next engine that I’m building is a turbo build and slightly bigger ! Awesome job guys ❤
As a 04 manual awd CRV owner that may someday turbo it, I was looking forward to this build, and thought eh Rav 4's arnt that cool. Now im starting to like this little 2 door awd Rav4 ! Awesome build, looks great and 270 hp at the wheels is not bad at all. Another great nugget made into a good car by MCM !
Way to go on these episodes… I’m a very old-time fan of mighty car mods but somehow I fell out of it… Even during the beautiful motor trend mighty car mod days… For some reason, I’ve been drawn back with the RAV4 episodes. If only we got the two door in the states.
ethanol is cool for tuning and power, but it would be fair to say it has some serious drawbacks, especially when you dont drive your car often. It settles down and decomposes in a bad way in your tank and lines after some time, can clog up your lines, it draws water in and causes corrosion of everything that can corrode, it dissolves some rubber parts etc.
Love you guys!! I've been watching since 2018 and I love all your builds, I recently got my first car and I enjoy watching your videos knowing I can maybe one day do these things to my car!!!
Marty is so right! Everyone always wants to see massive hp numbers but forget it's gotta be driveable. Mad nugget, looking forward to seeing it out on the tracks on the best 4wd channel on the internet.
A good idea for this in a different build would be do the full engine and frame swap from the v6 Rav (2GR-FE). Over 270hp factory... then get a built 2GR-FE for a 400hp NA V6 manual screamer... OR fit the supercharger like the TRD Aurion. Would be a sick nugget in the short wheelbase Rav!!
Good choice going for the Aussie built 2AZ engine from the Camry. I find the oil consumption is far less than the Japanese built 2AZ engine. Another tip: the 36 series Camry had a 9.6:1 compression, while the 40 series Camry had a 9.8:1 compression.
You boys have made me miss my rav with this build. And im sitting here really tossing up between buying a landcruiser/patrol or buying another rav so i can lift, turbo, muddies and make my 4wd club cry when i keep up with them.
@@jonathanwright5550 that's not true at all. The reason u wouldn't use it is that all that burnt oil is free and moving around in your engine. It's clumpy and can clog small oil ports that can leading to spinning bearings like what happened here
@@timm5970 They are in the content business. It would be an interesting video, having both engines wired and installed in a stand, and do some experiments.
@@RogerM88 no it wouldn't because the engine is trashed... it's also just a dumb uninteresting topic to begin with. Full synthetic oil cleans the engine as is
Nice build, would be awesome if you could fit a 2GR-FKS like what's in my 18 model Camry V6, they make 224kw at the fly, but it wouldn't fit or work with AWD. Harrop make a super charger that fits this motor, designed for Lotus.
Surorised Marty fidnt go Old schoo subaru and do an intercooler sprayer like out of an old sti or RA. Making in with just the regular wash tnak would be easy as or adding anotherbwasher tank and just plumbing it to the IC with a normal windshield nozzle
at all 4 wheels, and on a roller dyno, that power is probably well understated if anything. So 200kw at the wheels in this is probably at least 270kw at the engine
You just know UA-cam could automatically sort and remove those themselves with ease, crazy how prevalent they still are and how many ppl are still foolish enough to reply
Something that occurred to me with this video is that you guys keep bringing random shitboxes and tossing in their ECU's and then dyno'ing them... you are giving them a mad edge on making base tune maps for a lot of stuff they probably wouldn't have wasted time/effort/money on doing r&d with. And I dont mean just random generic tunes they bluetooth on their ecu's either, I mean an actual tested one now. Talk about being the real heroes of the shitbox genre, thanks duders! (in all actuality they ought to be paying you blokes to do this with tons of different cars for that r&d time)
Love this little nugget, only because I owned one... was loads of fun, I can only imagine what it would be like with a turbo....personally running a car on corn juice it just doesn't grab me and I'm not sold with all the extra cost and hassles associated with running E85....not for me I rather just have something that is fun and reliable running on standard pump fule....having the ability of having a flex tune just isn't worth it in my eyes....not unless your serious about tack days needing the extra horsies...
As a Canadian, this little nugget would make a KILLER winter car on some good snow tires.
Dude, I thought the same! So bada$$ with all of our snow... Hmmmmm... I now gotta go searching for one... This conversion would be so simple, cheap parts, priceless fun.
We have the V6 Rav4's on the road which supposedly make 270hp stock. Might be a little too much power turboing one of those 😬

I've had both a lowered Rav4 and a WRX and I have to say I had a lot more confidence ripping the Rav4 down a rough road.
I’ve raised mine slightly but went really good on shocks and it jumps beautifully! It’s a tuned 2azfe and hoots 🎉

Actually a very impressive number if you consider how much power a GR Corolla puts to the wheels.

Nice. Almost as much as a V6 RAV4, but of course no manual transmission on the V6 RAV4. Should be a fun little errand runner.
the v6 rav 4 would be measured from the flywheel not the wheels so this makes more than a v6 rav
