Performance & Reliability:
The 1MZ-FE VVT-i 3.0L V6 produces 210 horsepower and 220 lb-ft of torque, ensuring strong mid-range power and smooth highway cruising. It’s equipped with aluminum heads and block for lightweight strength and better heat management, making it one of Toyota’s most durable V6 engines.

Each engine undergoes a complete compression and leak-down test to confirm proper cylinder pressure and internal sealing. Our 1MZ-FE engines are sourced from verified low-mileage vehicles, cleaned, inspected for oil leaks or sludge, and tested for oil pressure and smooth idle. Known for its reliability, the 1MZ-FE VVT-i runs quietly, resists overheating, and performs consistently under heavy load — a true workhorse for Toyota’s minivan lineup.

Warranty & Installation:
Each engine comes with a 6-month limited warranty covering block, head, and internal components. The engine ships fully tested and ready to install, providing peace of mind for your replacement project.

For the best results, professional installation is strongly recommended. Before installation, replace standard maintenance components such as the timing belt, water pump, spark plugs, and gaskets. Fresh fluids and a clean cooling system are essential for optimal performance and long service life.
