2zzge Swap

[Shaneinhisroom]

I know I'm in the USA (kentucky) and you all are in the UK, but I think you all can help me.

I'm found a XRS that was totaled a few days ago in the back. The motor is for sale for like 1500 dollars, so I was thinking of putting it in my 98 Corolla. I saw someone do it...but around 2000 bucks, is it worth it to gain 80 horsepower and a auto/manual conversion? It's the 1.8L VVTi-L engine found in celica GTS's, except with 10 less HP. I don't have enough money to get a new car, but I want to also get some knowledge of swaps (already did a SR20DET alittle bit Xmas last year) before I head off to college.

I'm totally up for it if anyone here knows how to swap Toyota engines. I hear the wiring is a total mess, though.

If someone lives in the US and can help me in anyway here, that'll be much appreciated :)

you ll have to make plenty of conversions, especialy with the ECU.

It can be done, if you find a good mechanic.
