Yaris 1.0 to 1.5 engine swap

Recommended Posts

I have a 2002 1.0 french built yaris. I have been driving it around for 1 year.

I have recently purchased a damaged 2005 1.5 t sport. The donor car has body damage on the near side.

The 1.0 engine is underpowered and I am hoping to swap it to a 1.5.

I know it's easier to just buy a new car but I want a cheap project car for the summer to practice on.

 

Now for the questions:

Will the 1.5 engine fit straight into a 1.0 engine bay or do i need to fabricate engine mounts or cut into the chassis?

Will i need to swap the entire front end over to the 1.0? Transmission, drive shafts, suspension, steering, brakes?

What electrical work is required to make the 1.5 engine run?

Is that easier if you swap the body panels to your damaged 1.5 chassis than swapping the engines? Just my 2cents.
