Hmm are u sure u are making enough power to really need cams and a forged crank?
As far as the cams go its probly not worth it unless u have other mods and ur airflow is somwhat restricted, and even then u might not see much unless u get ur intake and heads ported, besides the 1zz is more of an economy engine than anything. But incase ur still insistant crower cams migth be able to help u out, or im sure theres plenty machine shops around where u live that could do a regrind, just ask a friend or look in the phonebook.

On the forged crank side i doubt theres a need unless ur making some serious power and even then its not ur biggest concern, pistons and rods would be more of a concern.

If u ask me id suggest u go see sumone locally who is known for building performance engines and get his opinion before u consider getting anything.

thanks for the info i no that the corolla was ment to be a grocery getter economy car but im going to defy whats been said about it. crower does have my hook up for valves retainers cams and rods and wiseco has my pistons. its getting turboed and im looking for close to 300hp to the wheels...

im not sure if toyota forges there cranks from the factory and i didnt no if it would be able to withstand that kind of power and boost but i currently have two cranks so ill give it a try and if it goes i found a shop that i can send the stock one to they will measure ti and get all the specs and custom grind one for me.. ill update with pics throughout the build but im sure when im all done with it the looks it will get will be very rewarding
