  1. Corolla 9th Gen/1st Gen Matrix (2003-2008)
    If someone can confirm for me that this is TDC, I see the piston head at the top as well. If TDC, then what can I use to lock the cams and crank into place? I don't want to take the cover off before I lock them up because I saw in a video someone did that and the chain guide came flying out...
  2. Corolla 9th Gen/1st Gen Matrix (2003-2008)
    Guys, I have a question. So, my 1zzfe exhaust manifold was warped from both edges (cylinder 1 and 4). The mechanic hammered out the warp. Which fixed it. But i get a feeling a slight leak still exists specially when cold. or pulling under heavy load. I wanted to ask, what's the best...
  3. Corolla 9th Gen/1st Gen Matrix (2003-2008)
    Hey guys, I have a 2008 Corolla CE with the 1zzfe and a 5 speed transmission. I've been looking into a turbo kit from turbokits.com and I've decided to order it in the spring. I know these 5 speeds have been somewhat unreliable in a stock application, and I'm just wondering if anyone has any...

Has anyone purchased a set of these that could possibly pull some measurements for me? I'd like to order all at once...

    Hi I have a 2002 corolla s 5spd When I accelerate from a stop the car hesitates and won’t accelerate I find myself stepping in the clutch and waiting for the rpms to go up and clear the problem and than slipping the clutch. After that while driving it’s ok but hesitates every shift change at the...

    I know this topic of the oil burning 1ZZFE engine has been covered before on this site. Other than replacing/rebuilding the engine, has anyone here had any success using an additive? I see old posts suggesting AR-X, Lucas Oil, Seafoam, ZMax -- but these all do different things. Is the problem...
  13. Corolla 9th Gen/1st Gen Matrix (2003-2008)
    am i correct to assume there is no difference from a 2005 matrix 1zzfe exhaust system to the 2006 matrix 1zzfe version/ My exhaust from the cat converter to the muffler needs to be replaced on my 2006 matrix xr and i'm looking to replace it myself as i know a garage or the dealer will over charge
  14. Corolla 8th Generation (1998-2002)
    My car has a 1ZZFE type engine and I want to try using Restore to see if it helps an oil burning cylinder. I found out that Restore shouldn't be used on VVT type engines, but the years are a bit uncertain for the 1ZZFE engine type in the '99 Corollas. I called a couple of Toyota dealerships...

  17. Introduce Yourself Here
    New here, I've got a 2007 Corolla CE, 5 speed manual in Super White II. It's got 147,000 mi on it, but runs like new and doesn't burn any oil, unlike my 1st 9th gen, a 2003 that burned a quart between oil changes, even at 60,000. I've read so many threads on here, and now I'm finally joining...
  18. Corolla 9th Gen/1st Gen Matrix (2003-2008)
    Hi everyone, I will be rebuilding an oil-burning 1ZZ from my Corolla over the next few weeks and wanted some help from those that have done it. First, I know people have honed the cylinders and had great results, but there are some details missing. What grit honing stones did you use? I want...
