Welcome To The Site! Get Your Toyota Corolla Pride On!

A Drag Racing Customed E210 Hatchback 

FACT ONE, Toyota Corollas have their pros in the streets. There are many Corolla enthusiasts with the same goal in mind. They all want a powerful Toyota Corolla. A modified Toyota Corolla with 300hp; weighing in around 2200-2900lb, can be a high 13 to a high 12 second car. 

To make reliable power, you will need to have a healthy motor. You can either turbo, supercharge, NA build, swap in a 2GR-FE, K24A2, SR20DET, or even an LS4. Next, big power Corollas have to be modified from the inside and out. Even with a small 50PS bump; tires, weight reduction, brakes, suspension, axles, frame, transmission, tune, all have to be addressed. 165-300PS is best fitted for any FWD/RWD/4WD or even AWD converted Corolla.

Toyota Corolla Emissions Test

What Are Emissions Tests?

The quantity of pollutants a car emits into the atmosphere when its engine is running is measured by an emissions test, commonly referred to as a smog check. During the test, contaminants are measured using sensors that are connected to the exhaust system of the car. The test results show if the car satisfies the state's emissions requirements.

How Important Is Emission Tests? 

Emissions tests play a crucial role in ensuring that automobiles aren't causing environmental harm and in lowering air pollution. Every state or country is free to establish its own requirements, however some states mandate a certain amount of emissions testing for registered cars. State and local governments have the authority to impose their own regulations on registered vehicles, while other states mandate some form of emissions testing..

Can You Make This More Clear? 

In other words, an emissions test examines your vehicle's cleanliness. The tests are designed to guarantee that automobiles meet the federal Clean Air Act Criteria. It's critical that an automobile's pollution controls function properly. When a vehicle fails an emissions test, it must be repaired and retested. 

In order to adhere to local and state laws, maintain your automobile, truck, SUV, CUV, or minivan. Some vehicles don't need these requirements.

Each county, state, or country sets their own testing requirements. Check with your local jurisdictions before modifying your car or swapping motors.

Toyota Corolla Transmission Swap

Drop The Best And Fitted Transmission Into Your Toyota Corolla!

A 2023 E210 Toyota Corolla Automatic Transmission 

What Is A Transmission? 

A vehicle's gearbox or transmission, uses a mechanical system of gears and gear trains to transfer power from the engine to the wheels. Without a gearbox, an automobile could not move efficiently since power could not be applied to it in a regulated manner.

Why Build The Transmission For Power? 

Whenever you are planning to make power, you have to modify the drive train. This is very important for durability. Modifications to the transmission can give you a better 0-60 time ratio. For example, you can get a aftermarket gear set, shift kit, LSD, clutch, or a high stall torque converter. Send your transmission to a build-up shop like Level 10. Another option is to shop at sites like MonkeyWrenchRacing for the required parts or other builds. Car-parts.com have some awesome deals and parts as well.

 

A C60 Transmission 

Switch For A Different Transmission!

There is always a third option when modifying your transmission. You can swap in a suitable/stronger transmission along with a better 0-60 timing ratio. You must keep in mind that your selected transmission has to be able to blot with your existing engine.  

A 2ZZ-GE C60 transmission from a Celica GTS is an excellent choice for many 1ZZ-FE powered vehicles. A skilled driver with; 180hp, at 2600lbs, can shift from 0-60 in less than 6.4 seconds.  A C60 transmission swap is beneficial for the 1ZZ-FE's power band and low end torque. Many FE headed motors have more throttle response than their GE headed counterparts. This is truly unique even when they have more power.

With some serious potential these motors sit at the top. They can be rebuilt for forced induction or NA applications. All the proper equipment from the donated car including a suitable or modified transmission is needed for a successful swap. These swaps requires a lot of customization including customed motor mounts, electronics/ECU, suspension, custumed high proformance axles, shifter, fuel system, cooling system, A/C/power steering, intake/exhaust, suspension/brakes, and tires.  Custom kits and parts can easily be found at importperformanceparts, ptuning, driveshaftshop, gatorracingaxles, turbokits, or maxpeedrods. You can select and compare prices for your likings.

Rotrex and Eaton have a set of superchargers that will work with many of these engines. Some of these engines can benefit from an S14 supercharger. Turbo or supercharged applications will require upgraded injectors, upgraded ECU, a blot on or customed built manfold, fuel pump, and boost controller. Get up to 270PS from these motors. Every motor and transmission has a weakness. It is very important to address your motor and transmission for weaknesses before modifying them.
