Hi all,
I am new and want your opinion on buying a spyder with a bad engine. I have one identified that is in very good condition (minus the bad motor of course). Body is in good condition, the car has 105k miles, etc. I am just looking for a fun car to drive around town, so I plan to just swap in another 1ZZ. I am curious is there much adaptation work that would have to be done if I found an engine from a 03+ Corollla or similar, or are the engines the same? I would appreciate any other suggestions or thoughts on this project that you might have.
