MANY many many of the problems with the 2ZZ were caused by overzealous drivers revving them far too high on downshifts or beating on them brand new and setting up problems later on.

its a motorcycle engine in a car to be frank, and we all know how important it is when you get your new bike that it be broken in correctly for a long happy life. i'm sure kids were hitting lift as they pulled out of the sales lot with 2 miles on the engine, and then missing shifts on a 6 speed and putting it into the wrong gear and revving the engines to 10,000 rpm, obliterating the oil pump. how many engines going down the road can run 4000RPM all day long every day and not have a problem? and of those, how many can take extended sprints upto 7800RPM on a regular basis and hangout around there? not many. no wonder so many people broke theirs, they abused them!
