Dear Fellow Toyota Owners

[Vanatorul]

Dear fellow owner I (my father) owns a Corolla 1.3XL, 2E-E engine, katalytic, purchased in 1991. I know it is old by it has proven it's trustworthiness so since I will be using it for the following years I thought I could improve it a little. I was thinking at :sports air filter, Iridium spark plugs, high performance spark plug wires, muffler, high preformance brake lines and brake pads, lowering springs 25mm and sports shock absorbers, sports clutch disk and clutch cover. I also thought about light weight engine wheels, but I am almost convinced that I won't find for my model. I was looking in general for easy ways to reach about 100HP from its current 82HP.

Any suggestions from your behalf will be more than welcome. Thank you for your time. Good drining. With respect Dimitris

Thank you for your swift reply. I will keep up my hunting for ways to improve it. Buying another car is anyway out of the question.

the money you'll send getting 82 - 100 you might aswell buy a gti

i'm afraid they are right the amount of money you are going to have to spend just on bits alone nevermind the time or labour charges will out weigh the price of buying a GOOD gti.......

trust me i know been upgrading and restoring my toyota for years might as well have gone out and bought something in the region of a K or L reg celica for the amount of money i have pilled into her :group-cuddles:
