A bolt on turbo or supercharger kit would be awesome. The TRD supercharger mentioned in the wikipedia entry was for the 1.8 1ZZ-FE. That's why I'm trying to find out if it'll be compatible with my engine - the 1.6 3ZZ-FE. I did a bit of searching for turbo kits for the 1.6, but didn't find anything. Perhaps, again the turbo kits are specifically for the 1.8, in which case I'll need to know if the two are compatible.

Oh, and here's some juicy linkage... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_ZZ_engine

Hey Enzo! Unforunately my engine isn't from that series. If we're gonna talk model numbers, here's what I know so far: 3ZZ-FE (My Car) Displacement: 1598cc Bore: 79.0mm Stroke: 81.5mm Power: 109hp 1ZZ-FE (The slow Celica) Displacement: 1794 cc Bore: 79.0mm Stroke: 91.5mm Power: 140bhp 2ZZ-GE (Corolla T-Sport) Displacement: 1796 cc Bore: 82.0mm Stroke: 85.0mm Power: 190bhp The 3ZZ and 1ZZ share the same engine block from what I can tell from searching on the net, but I'm looking to know what other parts they share. Fueling system? Exhaust system? Parts

First of all I just have to say, 'It's been a while!' I logged in after quite a while only to be greeted by a '43,695 New Posts' message! That's a lot! Anyway, As probably none of you will remember I am driving a pretty sluggish stylish 1.6 Corolla and am looking a little extra go. I'm wondering if anyone here would have any knowledge of other Toyota's, their engines, and what parts from the bigger engines that may be compatable. If anyone here actually works in a Toyota garage and may have access to part numbers and specifc details then that would be great. If this

The sig is Sweet As .... Sorry, couldn't resist!

My bad! I thougth it was the early 80's, say 82. You can see where my confusion came from. Also, correct me if i'm wrong, isn't the Saxo VTS only 120 Bhp. The 130 Bhp GT/Starlet should def have the edge there, esp. with the extra tourqe due to the turbo charger.

Happy Non-Denominational Seasonal Holiday to you all! (Or a Very Merry Christmas to all those non-PC ones amongst us!) Don't let the crappy winter driving conditions catch you out!

That's like saying you could compare a Model T Ford to a Focus if it someone rebuilt a Model T this year. When it was made is irrevelant. When it was designed is the important factor.

You's guys have to remember that the susspension setup (perhaps the chassis, but not 100% sure) of the N/A Starlet, Glanza and GT hasn't changed since the introduction of the EP82. That's a 1980's design. 11 years older than the 106/Saxo's 1991 designed suspension. The engine in the starlets are also a pretty old design too. It's hardly a fair comparison in the first place.

A Hammock! Get a chuffin' hammock in yer boot! That would be awesome!

number 4?

Unfortunatley not. The insurance i'm paying for this one is steep enough as it is. I'd love a T-Sport Compressor! I really love my car and 200+bhp would be great in it. Because my insurance is so much (only 1 year ncb, and living in a 'high-risk area') I can't afford to pay for two policys and do the car-for-the-commute-car-for-the-weekend thing, so I went for the almost-new-warrantied-good-looking-sensible-commuter-car thing. Thanks for all the nice comments people.

Had a good night, despite the miserable weather, @ the Lisburn Cruise. Was made to feel very welcome by the LC Mod Team. I hope to make it to anyone one soon.

Cheers! You got the pics of it from the cruise the other night online yet?

No photoshop meisters out there willing to do this?
