1.8 Vvti Differences ?

[celicavvti]

Hey all,

Have to get a new engine for my 2000 Gen7 Celica (boo) and I am presently looking at a 1.8 vvti engine out of a Corrolla (I believe). This engine is a 1zz-fe, however I was wondering if there are any differences between this one, and the one in my Celica ? I know my Celica is 140bhp and the corrolla is meant to be 118bhp , Does anyone know why this difference in what appear to be the same engine ??

thanks.

Shaun.

hi

make sure the engine you are looking at is from a later model otherwise you could be buying an engine with the same problems as before or not much life left in it,but basically if it is a 1zz then it will be the same internally so long as you still got you old one you can swap any external parts before you fit it

A guy at work mentioned that the cylinder head may be different, has anyone any experience of this ??

thanks.

the head and block are the same,the intake and throttle body may be different also the water bypass may be different
