Nah, since Yamaha developed or co-developed some of Toyota's best engines including the 4A-GE (AE86 and MR2), 2UR-GSE V8, the 2ZZ-GE and a few others I think you're good to go.

Back the the Subaru engine thing though! There are only 100 qualified Subaru techs in North America.
Everybody else is all "well there's your problem them there piston things are sticking out sideways and all the compression is draining out".

Gotta pick up the multimeter and start taking notes. I'll hand mine off to my successor so he can ignore them.
