Question 1990 Corolla Wagon DX- What can I do?

I'm going to be getting my dad's 1990 Corolla Station wagon soon, and I was thinking of turning this car into a total sleeper.

So I was wondering if anybody knew what I could do to the engine? I think right now, it's just the stock 4AFE motor. But Is there a possibility that I could do a motor swap? My brother is saying that if I wanted to go crazy, I could fit a 90-93 Supra motor into it. So if anyone could help me out, I'd appreciate it.

I'd go with a supercharged GM 3800/4spd auto fwd transaxle in the back of the wagon.
You said sleeper, right?
Or just chill and use the car for transportation until you save up enough for a Supra

I searched up acouple of things, and I was wondering what the 5AFE is. I guess it's a JDM motor that can fit in a regular 90-95 Corolla?

5AFE= http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...946188778&rd=1

4AFE= http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...945951458&rd=1

The odd thing is that they both look the same. I guess the 5AFE is just a little bigger.

And, yes, I am a newb. So don't hate. I'm just asking for advice because the engine of my "soon to be" corolla is going to go out soon.

The 5AFE is a little smaller is what you should have said.

Aspriz90.. you're signature is big enough to get you banned.. it should be about the same size as mine... and the mod-gods won't bust your nuts.
