Engine 99 corolla engine swap

99 corolla engine swap

im thinking of going with a celica engine but ive been searching and reading all day on the net and its more complicated than i thought. what would you guys suggest i rather just swap it out not haveing to change the motor mounts and harness. what newer engine should i go with i have the 1zzfe in it now

basically the only thing that you would be changing is the head going from not vvt-i to vvt-i
but you would also have to change the harness on anything new that you put in.. the harness is spisific for that engine, and ECU set up...
like for instance the 03+ corollas are not compatable (without changing plugs) to teh Celica ECU with VVT-i.
why not go for a turbo system or something? more gains and actually not that much more expensive..

hey denver rolla what do you mean stick with the stock engine and put a turbo system on it or go with the celica engine. how much difference would i feel adding a turbo setup to the stock 1zzfe would it put alot of strain on it. thanks for the reply

Do you mean the Celica 2ZZGE or the 1ZZFE?

the celica 1zz is no different if you already have vvt-i if im not mistaken. The intake manifold and exhuast manifold are different but thats all i believe.

i have a chance to swap my 1zzfe with a turbo celica ingine for 1500 + 2500 for labor and inter coller. the only thing is there gunna have to change mounts and harness to make the celica engine fit. i started considering buying the same engine since my 1zzfe is blown and adding pistons and a cam plus a turbo but man i know that adding the turbo 2zz would be alot more fun. im new to riceing and man theres so many options out tere so i would like your guys strong opinions

thanks man thats what im going to end up doing just put the same engine in and turbo it. you guys have been very helpful another quick question is there a s/c for 99 corolla.

always keeping things a secret aye trav
