Toyota Performance upgrades for a 1.3 Corolla.. - CarForum.net - Car Forums, Automotive News and Community

Speedster159 · 11-06-2011, 12:00 PM

Well... this is a shame. I have a 1.3 Carburetor 1993 Corolla... -.-" It's going to take awhile to get a 1.6 AE101 Engine (Also a corolla from the same year)

I was wondering... Is there any good performance upgrades for the car? Cheap and Expensive ones...

Want a pic of the engine bay/engine. Or just a particular area? Just give me a holla and i will get a pic up as soon as i can.

1993 carburetor? wat?

To answer your question, you can't make a 1.3L fast without boost.

Performance and 1.3L I4s should never be in the same sentence. Just saying. Refer to my sig.

I'm sorry, and I don't like to hate on any car company or make in general, but "You know you own a corolla when you are excited to swap up to a 1.6"

:P

I own a 91" Lancer GTi With a 1.6 Fuel Injected Engine, and it also has an on-board computer. Helluva lot better than the Corolla.

And a 05" Civic VTi.

I didn't intend that to refer to you as an owner, just that it was funny. The AE86 corolla has a 1.6 and is on my short list of vehicles for my collection.

**Mike** · 11-07-2011, 01:08 AM

Then why do you want to make the 1.3L faster?

Speedster159 · 11-07-2011, 06:16 AM

Cause all of my other cars are all stock, and i want to keep it that way.

And the Toyota is modified, re-painted bright green, 17 Inch Concept One Wheels, Nitto Neo-Gen Tires, Custom Leather Seat, (installed soon) Sound setup, (Soon to come) Underglow and what not, And... a HID Headlight conversion..

Some i can't remember... -.-"

so, it sounds like your ricin it out. stick a muffler on it and your good to go!

but in all honesty the only way to really go would be like previously mentioned, a turbo. and for that size motor not just a little boost, but quite a bit for a huge difference.

best bet would be a swap. also, pics of the entire car?
