 After-market supercharger upgrades are also available for the standard 2ZZ-GE engine, offering an upgrade path for those looking for more power from 111R's and early S2 Exige's.
-The main weak points of the 2ZZ-GE have problems with oil starvation at high corner speeds, camshaft failure (excess lobe wear) and clutch failure. These failures are rare, but for cars which are seeing track usage with semi-slick tyres it is recommended that sump baffles are retrofitted to avoid the oil starvation issues.

These failures are rare, but for cars which are seeing track usage with semi-slick tyres it is recommended that sump baffles are retrofitted to avoid the oil starvation issues. Early 2ZZ-GE equipped cars us traditional throttle cable, but in later cars this was changed to a drive-by-wire system.
 The accompanying Toyota C64, 6-speed, gearbox is also recognised as a weak point, particularly in high-powered applications.
