North America 95 Corolla question??

[housiu]

Hi all,

I recently bought a 95 Corolla in Canada. I am planning to buy a suspension kit for this car. I am wondering if the Japan AE101 suspension will fit into this North America (AE102) Corolla?

Add a little more to the question.

If I want to put a 4AGE into my AE102, which suspension should i use Super Strut or MacPherson?

Thank

Anyone know?? If you have done these kind of mods, please help me out.

Regular, you don't have superstrut, if you want superstrut you would have to find a donor car in Japan and get the WHOLE suspension, remember you have drums on the back; superstrut came with disc brakes. I've seen someone selling their Superstrut suspension before for about $1000 US(I think).

You can find suspension for your AE102 anywhere, just get a set of KYB shocks and set of decent springs like B+G, Eibach, Tein, etc.. and find a set of Sway bars to aid suspension. That should be enough for you to put a 4AGE in the car, the 4AGE doesn't have gobs of torque or extra power compared to the 4AFE and 7AFE, so you shouldn't have to worry. I would worry more if you were going with a 4AGZE swap as it does have lots of torque compared to the 4AFE and 7AFE.

Where abouts in Ontario are you??

I live in Markham, Ontario. Thank for the help!! I am going to save some $$ for the swap.

If you have a 7AFE in your car, you can always build up a 7AGE conversion, 4AGE top end and 7AFE bottom end.

!! Thats sounds really nice. To bad I only have a 4AFE.

Oh by the way, do those JDM coilover suspension for AE101 fit on the AE102?? I know the AE102 uses MacPherson struts. And I am planning to put like TRD SUSKIT suspension into my AE102. I asked some local shops, and they all give me different answers. Some say it will fit, but just need to change few parts. And some says I will not fit...!! I am confused
