bill is right but to someone just getting in to one the differences dont matter at all and prob wont even be noticable.
i have a 16v 4age if u need it.
if u have an sr5, u have the 4ac single cam, carbed motor. making like 80hp to the crank.like 60 to the wheels. correct me if i am wrong mark or bill
u dont have an lsd, or the rear disk brakes either.
point being it will be a fun car to get started with, but it will be expensive to catch up to at least gts specs. it'll be hard to drift in this condition too. dont get me wrong it is completely possible but alot harder than learning with a 240 or sumthing like that
but corollas are the best if u put the time into it you will love it.
