Engine Swap

You don't happen to know if that's "dyno tuned" or "street driven tuned", do you?
The celica engine hp would be "street driven tuned", plus you could probably modify that later with a turbo.

at this point id almost rather do a swap cuz i'm pretty sure with a 2zz swap it would still pass ca smog but with a turbo or s/c it never would. god damned ca smog.

ITB's those are hot
FWD... i know the levin comes lik that but the trueno? dunt tink so
and why not the 20v 4agze... supercharge. swap that out and put a turbo? sure why not!
Black top 20v 4age are 6 spds.
and the cost of the 2zz is too much for me to justify..
ITB w/ velocity stacks...whew.. and the endless tuning possibilites..
4agze would be nice though.... nut sure if they came FWD tho.

I just had a pretty good idea...
What about the 4EFTE from the Starlet Turbo?
1.3 liter turbo, shouldn't run into any clearance problems at all since it's a smaller motor.
133 hp stock and turbo= lots of tuning potential.

I just did a search on Ebay and found two 4EF-TE motors.
One was 400 dollars just for the motor, and another was 1500 for the motor with 40k miles, transmission,ecu, wiring harness..everything you would need.
Only think is engine mounts but aside from that, I see no reason why this swap would not be feasable. It would almost certainly fit just fine.
