my house has a gen2 already . so dont want another gen2 .
gen2 cps is more expensive than satria neo , i like neo is becasue of the look and also i downa to fetch ppl like taxi driver .

well , it is a uni-drive , not a city-car . so i dont think i have to go for a so good car . Friends will be sitting on the same car ,new or 2nd hand , they wont be paying for the car . of course , if i were my friend i would be happy to sit in new car . if i were to pay the car , probably i will think twice. get what i mean . it is a university-transport to replace the crappy BUS shuttle in UTM.

it is more of short distance drive like uni-to-city . i reckon that doesnt really recommend me to go for a new car as it is double the price of the 2nd hand .

how about maintenance? high cost?

EG price is higher .
however the Accord SM4 price is kinda cheap too . somehow honda is not so lasting if i am not mistaken . the suspension maintainance is high .

nola...its the workshop tat u go for maintenance...my aunt staying juz next door last time when my mum still driving the toyota seg ae101...they both always talk about their car maintenance price as both oso got it 2nd hand...the price is actualy almost the same...nth much different...my mum's ae is 94' while my aunt's eg is 93'...my mum gave it to me n i sold it for my new car but my aunt still stick around wit her eg...she says its still reliable n gd condition so wait it "kong" ad only change...

i would like to buy this car too...but what i can found is about 20K+...each 2nd hand Toyota Corolla SEG AE101 1.6L Manual

powerful car...can race with v-tec

FC no need to talk la.....Corolla name are famous for saving fuel/fuel economy since the 1st Corolla ever appearead on the world,the KE 10

If got money then dump a 4AGE with VVT into the engine bay,this engine is good for it's Economy and power,perfect for daily drive and rempit-ing

AE101 5Speed Manual 4AFE can consider an ultra reliable bullet proof car. Hardly have any trouble and show stopper apart from aged wear and tear.

If you wanted to get one, get a cheaper then send for engine and gearbox rebuild no matter its 4AFE or 4AGE or 3SGE or what ever engine is in there. After doing a full rebuild which isn't cost much for a 4AFE if you already getting the car at low price then it will be able to service you probably for another 5-10years depending on driving style and maintenance habit.

Even you thinking to transplant better rebuild the internal before transplant coz most of them already aged more than or about 10 years.

just own this car for 1-2 months. bought 20k.
condition is good enough. still using 4AFE engine (manual).
clocked 360 000 KM already.. huhuhu

fuel consumption around 12km/litre (city n highway)

need to change clutch, absorber, timing belt, brake shoes.

so i'm planning to swap with silvertop or blacktop. still considering between these both engine.
any opinion?

silver top is Originally for AE101 which is ur model but black top is originally for AE111... so it is up to u... but most ppl will go for black top coz it is a lil more powerful...
check for chopshop find a good engine better than wasting $$$ to just swap only... find the engine then prepare to swap... if u base of ppl to help u to find it is a lil more expensive... a blacktop will cost around 4k (not sure about current market rate)...

just go for blacktop, u won't regret it

thanx 4 the advices.
need a bit info..

if i swap for silvertop into AE101, izzit plug n play?
how about blacktop AE111 into AE101? any adjustment?

lastly, izzit other parts (alternator, compresspr, drive shaft & bla2...) can interchange between 4AFE and 4AGE 20V?

you can PM me to share ur experience using 4AGE 20V..
sharing 'common' problem for 4AGE 20V..
really need info about it.

thanx mate

anyone know whats the full tank, the full fuel capacity for this seg ?? thanks

around RM80 full tank RON95

u do the math..

This is a good car. Quality back then is what make the old Toyota famous....not like the VIOS today. If can get one in good condition, go for it.

Why you bump 2010 thread

around 45litre something

bro but for stabilizing and speeding .... vios win, and vios is more solid i think. i just get a second hand vios coz my car budget not more than 40k and wan a quality car ... but i dont mind the resale value is high...

probably same as gen 1 vios ..
