welcome to TN! a quick bunch of info for you on the swap..

what type of corolla do you have? LE/S or XRS? LE/S has the 1ZZ engine and the XRS has the 2ZZ engine. Both are shared by the celica. If you want to swap in the 2ZZ, i am assuming you will also need to swap in the 6sp tranny. Its a lot of work, what experience do you have with all that stuff?

to Toyota Nation, Krissia! You should cruise over to the Corolla forum to ask about the engine swap. Lots of folks there ready to help. Glad to have you with us.
