The story

History: facts, each with its source

Wikipedia lists the 1FZ-FE in the 80 Series Land Cruiser from 1992, the 70 and 100 Series abroad, and the Lexus LX 450 from 1995 to 1997, chosen for its displacement, smoothness, ruggedness and torque.1

80/20 Automotive calls the 1FZ engines very reliable and sturdy, able to pass 250,000 miles without a rebuild, and says the biggest knock on them is fuel economy.2

  • Displacement: 4.5L (4,477 cc)1
  • Bore × stroke: 100 × 95 mm1
