Toyota 2RZ-FE specs: 2.4L (148.8 ci) 4-cylinder, 95 x 86 mm (3.7402 x 3.3858 in) bore and stroke. Rated 142 hp, 1995–2004. Used in the Toyota Tacoma. DOHC.
The Toyota 2RZ-FE is oversquare — the 3.7402" bore exceeds the 3.3858" stroke by 10.5% — a layout that favors airflow and RPM over leverage at the crank. The 3.3858" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 7,100 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 37.2 ci (610 cc).
It is one of 4 engines in the RZ family, the smallest at 148.8 ci. 10 factory variants share these dimensions, rated at 142 hp across 1995–2004.
