| High compression pistons | |
| ●Changed to aluminum forged pistons, which
are stronger than standard aluminum cast pistons. ●The skirts of the compression pistons are treated with molybdenum, as opposed to the steel plating on the surfaces of standard pistons. ●Doing this ensures excellent slideability and lubrication in matching with the aluminum cylinder, which improves the initial break-in period. |
●Lightening of all areas including the piston
pin has resulted in achieving a single piston weight of about 70 grams,
improving the cam-follow in the high-rev region. ●By changing the shape of the piston head, the high compression ratio (11.5) of the 2ZZ-GE engine has been improved even further to 13.0. This high compression ratio improves torque and response throughout the entire range. |
![]() High Compression Piston& Piston Ring Set |
![]() * Both torque and output is improved across the entire range. * Maximum power is improved by about 15 kW (20 ps), and maximum torque is improved by about 20 N*m (2 kgf*m). (Measurements are TRD bench test values. Actual improvement differs depending on vehicle.) Note: Above specifications are our development values with all parts listed below installed. |

(Measurements are TRD bench test values. Actual improvement differs depending on vehicle.) Attention 1: Exhaust manifold is suiatble to vehicle with 2ZZ-GE engine installed such like Celica, Corolla Fielder, Corolla Runx/Alex and Will VS. Attention 2: Original cylinder head form was changed on 03.3. Vehicle on 03.3 are devided into two different types, one before the change and one after the change. Please make sure the application with below instruction.
