. Idiot!
As for the wood interior, nah i good. Dat car is a fire hazard
also all local sedans come with 4 wheel disc braks standard, however abs is optonalcompact, all-alloy construction for the cylinder head and engine block, for maximum thermal efficiency and minimum weight. The 1.3 litre block is 6kg lighter than the Starlet block.
• a conical shape at the rear of the block to maximise the rigidity of the gearbox coupling, and hence reduce NVH
• a lightweight, rigid crankshaft and high-strength connecting rods with plastic region tightening bolts, for optimum rigidity with low reciprocating weight
• the crankshaft centre line is offset to the thrust side, to reduce friction and hence maximise fuel efficiency
• a virtually square bore and stroke relationship to boost torque (75.0mm x 73.5mm for the 1.3 litre engine)
• reduced reciprocating mass and lightweight valve train components, low friction pistons and piston rings, and low-load valve springs, to improve fuel efficiency
• a Twin Cam Multi-valve cylinder head, for maximum engine breathing efficiency
• Variable Valve Timing-intelligent, to optimise performance across the engine revolution range and minimise emissions
• a long-branch inlet system with resonator, to maximise low-to-mid range torque. The inlet system is made of plastic, to reduce heat transfer from the engine to the inlet charge and hence increase volumetric efficiency
• a plastic engine cover to reduce NVH and increase recyclability
• sequential fuel injection with multiple injector nozzles mounted in the inlet ports, for maximum fuel atomisation and reduced wall wetting
• a hot chip type air flow meter for the EFI, for more accurate air-flow measurement and hence more accurate fuel/air mixing
• stainless steel extractor-style exhaust headers, for maximum performance and durability, and lower emissions
• rearward-facing exhaust, which combines with double-walled front exhaust pipe to improve catalytic converter performance and hence reduce emissions. The catalytic converter has thinner walls to further improve heat-up rate and reduce emission
• a double ball-jointed exhaust pipe connector, to reduce NVH
• a two-stage muffler (as debuted in the Lexus range) to improve high rpm engine performance on the 1.5 litre sedan engine Additional fuel emission saving technology includes computer engine management, individual Toyota Direct Ignition for each of the four cylinders and electronic spark advance with a knock control system.
The engine ECU determines the spark advance.
Serviceability improvements include Multiplex engine diagnostics (which can detect a malfunction and memorise details of the failure), a vertically installed oil filter and adoption of chain drive to the camshafts.
The 8mm pitch roller cam chain has a lubricating oil jet and auto tensioner.
Offset Crankshaft:
crankshaft offset 12mm to the thrust side of the cylinder bore centre line.
This reduces the side force generated at maximum compression, for reduced friction and improved fuel economy.
Toyota calculates the offset crankshaft configuration reduces fuel consumption by between one and three percent.
Twin Cam Multi-valve:
aluminium alloy cylinder head to achieve maximum thermal efficiency.
The cylinder head has two overhead camshafts and four valves per cylinder.
The twin cam design provides for direct valve actuation, which minimises valve train inertia and allows for optimum cam profiles.
It results in more positive actuation and less free play.
Toyota employs four valves per cylinder on all its passenger car engines to increase intake valve area (and hence engine breathing) and reduce valve inertia compared with a two-valve design with equivalent intake area.
The four-valves per cylinder concept also allows for a more efficient combustion chamber, with a central spark plug.
The four-valve design also allows the engine designer to employ milder valve timing, while still achieving full cylinder filling.
vertical intake ports, to further boost engine breathing.
It has narrow valve stems, to reduce intake resistance and valve-train mass.
The fuel injection nozzles are located in the inlet ports of the cylinder head, to prevent wall wetting and fuel adhesion to the walls of the port, thereby reducing hydrocarbon emissions.
compact cylinder head design, with an included valve angle of 33.5 degrees, for maximum efficiency.
The 33.5 degree design is also employed on the Prius engine.
It is the widest included valve angle Toyota has used since introducing the "F" type (passenger car) engine series in Camry in 1987.
The wider included valve angle improves engine breathing and allows space for chain drive to the two camshafts.
chain-driven camshafts.
Cylinder-Head Design:
compression ratio has been set at 10.5:1, for optimum combustion efficiency and power output across the revolution range.
The combustion chambers employ a tapered (oblique) squish design, to improve thermal efficiency and reduce the chance of engine knock (pre-ignition).
The squish area has been shaped obliquely along the wall surface of the combustion chamber, improving airflow, promoting swirl and speeding flame travel.
The combustion chambers are almost entirely machined, to ensure minimum variation in combustion chamber volume across the four cylinders.
Special attention has been paid to cooling the combustion chamber, including provision of a water jacket between the exhaust port and the spark plug boss, to lower the operating temperature at the exhaust valve seat and improve cooling performance.

about the fuel system:
the scions have a fuel pressure regulator and fuel filter in the fuel tank. the returnless system means warm fuel from the engine bay does not return to the tank. the internal temperature of the fuel tank therefore stays cooler, reducing evaporative emissions.
about the VVT-i:
toyota’s intelligent continuously variable valve timing system is more advanced than the basic systems in some German luxury vehicles and Japanese small cars.
scions have the latest-generation TMC-developed vane-type VVT-i control, which debuted on Prius and Lexus IS200. VVT-i provides continual variations of the intake valve timing, to match the engine’s operating conditions. This improves performance and fuel efficiency, and reduces vibration on engine start-up and shut-down.
1NZ-FE's inlet timing can be varied over a range of 60 degrees relative to crankshaft angle, to provide optimum valve timing for the full range of driving conditions.
Inlet camshaft timing is varied according to engine revolutions, throttle position, engine coolant temperature and intake air volume. The maximum retard setting provides zero valve overlap. (There is a five degree period between the exhaust valve closing and inlet opening.) Inlet cam timing is set to the maximum retard position for engine start-up, operation at low engine temperature, idle and engine shut-down. The maximum advance setting provides 55 degrees of valve overlap.
VVT-i Activation:
the scion's VVT-i is a computer controlled and oil-pressure activated push- push type system. The engine ECU can command the system to advance or retard the inlet camshaft timing, thereby providing for faster response. The hardware is a camshaft timing oil control valve mounted adjacent to the inlet camshaft gear wheel and a VVT-i controller mechanism built onto the inlet camshaft timing gear. The camshaft timing oil control valve is a spool valve, controlled via a coil and plunger by the engine ECU. It can signal "advance", "hold" or "retard". The VVT-i controller consists of a housing on the front of the timing wheel, driven from the timing chain, and a four-bladed vane coupled with the intake camshaft.
when the engine ECU requires a change in inlet timing, it signals the oil control valve to provide oil pressure to either the advance or retard side of the four vane chambers. A locking pin in the controller locks the camshaft timing in the maximum retard position for engine start-up and immediately after start-up (until oil pressure is established) to prevent any knocking noise.

the 1497cm3 power plant delivers a class-leading 80kW (107HP) at 6000rpm and 142Nm of torque at 4200rpm. it has 16 percent more power and four percent more torque than the superseded 1.5 litre Paseo sports car. the capacity increase to 1497cm3 has been achieved by increasing the stroke from 73 to 84.7mm. unique features of the scions are its variable back-pressure muffler and slightly longer exhaust valve opening duration.
