Swap

[EdMendez]

I want to swap my engine out to make it faster. Does all year toyota corollas for engine wise fit? Would it matter at all? What would be the best thing to do?

What is wrong with the current engine?

No. Some of them have different mounting locations. Usually you can get motors made in your generation to work, others will take frabrication.

'93 - '97 ... meh. Only motor worth swapping would be a 1.8 VVTL-i (think it was the 2ZZ) but that will only fit '03-'08 without modifications, and possibly '98 - '02

Nothing is wrong with my engine besides a small leak that my friend told me I had plus it burns oil. I just want to make the car a bit faster and possibly try to find a way to make it Manuel if I ever find my year

Better off buying a manual outright. There is a lot involved in swapping an automatic to a manual, especially with an OBD-II vehicle.
