the 1zzfe isn't the best motor that Toyota's ever made, but it's reliable if you don't rag it too much.

1zzfe is very strong motor for being made of alluminum, been takin up to 17psi on stock internals before on an MR-S, it only ran for 1 1/4 run but it ran an 11.8!, the valve train is the weak point, DO NOT OVER REV IT, i found this out the hard way.

2004 Corollas will have a XRS model out which will be available with the 2zzge motor found in the Celica GTS and Matrix XRS. 180 hp stock. It's a nice motor if you plan to keep it stock. I just dislike the look of the "bubbly" looking 03-04 models.
