Find one off a car that someone is breaking, one that's been in a crash or something but the engine is still fine.

I've also seen a few 4EFTE's on ebay recently.

Just make sure they're not burning oil or making any funny noises that they're not supposed to.

to answer your question YES u can put in abigger engine but there are several things to consider

cost- the more mental engine that u want to put in more the more u gotta pay

handling/braking- fitting a huge heavy engine will mess up the weight of the front end so will require work in the handling and brakes

insurance engine swap = mega insurance cost

engine bay size- u only got so much usable space under the hood

now for what u can fit with the easiest first

5efe

5efhe

4efte/5efte

4age whatever version u want

the MR2 engine i cant remember the mane

[Mikey Jay]

Swaps I've seen are

5efe (1.5 from Toyota Paseo)

4efte (1.3 turbo from the Starlet Turbos)

'5efte' (a hyrbid of the above engines, making a 1.5 turbo)

4age 20v (from the Toyota Levin/Treuno, fair bit of work for this swap though)

3sgte (a LOT of work to do this swap though)

[Mikey Jay]

Damn, Nic beat me to it ;)

[nic1.3]

sorry mikey dude

from that list i would go for a 5efe personally as it just an updated 4e with greater displacement.

i hope to fit one in a year or 2 and build it to crazy power..

but if u want to be fast and poor be creative.......

[iamlegend]

i am gonna go to the scrappy n try n get the 1.5 from Toyota Paseo or the glanza engine

i just feel atm i want to make it alot faster

how old are you? 20? isn't an engine conversion going to kill you on insurance?

[Mart]

As said above mate. You'll have to upgrade your braking and handling mods aswell.

No point increasing the ponies if you cant slow the fcuk down...

There's a few of us on here thats done conversions but its alot of money lad. Im still adding bits and mine is done for 2yrs now...

[nic1.3]

hey mart just wondering where did u get the conversion done
