Toyota UZ engine

Automotive Engines

The Toyota UZ engine is a gasoline-fuelled 32-valve, quad-camshaft V8 piston engine family used in Toyota luxury cars and sport utility vehicles. Three variants were built, the 1UZ-FE, 2UZ-FE and 3UZ-FE, and production spanned 24 years, from 1989 to mid 2013, ending with the 3UZ-FE-powered Toyota Crown Majesta I-FOUR. The UR engine family replaced it. The 4.0 litre all-alloy 1UZ-FE debuted in 1989 in the first-generation Lexus LS 400, sold in Japan as the Celsior, and spread across the Toyota and Lexus range. It is oversquare, with a bore and stroke of 87.5 by 82.5 millimetres, belt-driven quad camshafts and six-bolt main bearings, and its platform was based on CART and IRL engine design. A derivative, the FV2400-2TC, is one of the few road engines approved by the FAA for use in an airplane. In the Transport Atlas it stands for Toyota flagship V8 power.
