yer its an 18,744km drive and 2 boat rides & i will be in brisbane

thanks dave. im australian but im living in notrhern ireland i need to get the car into top shape as i intend to drive it back to australia next year All European models of the gen7 celica have the 6-speed & eather 1zz-fed or 2zz-ge . the 2zz-ge is not a parth i would like to go down eather so its eather the 2zr-fae which i would like if it can be done, or just do a swop for a low miles 1zz-fed. the oil usige affects 1999 to 2003 models and and toyota have said that the only way to fix it is to eather get a NEW ENGINE BLOCK or replace the engine with a 2003 or newer engine at the moment its using about 1000mls of oil every 700miles

thanks for the reply i have looked into getting using a 2zz-ge but from what i have read the newer 2zr-fae engine has better fuel economy and 10% to 15% more power than the 1zz-fe

i have a 2001 celica with the 1zz-fed engine it's drinking LOTS of oil and i wont to do an engine swop i have found a good low miles 2009 TOYOTA AVENSIS 1.8 ENGINE TYPE 2ZR-FAE engine for 750.00 pounds. (1)dous anyone know if this engine will fit and what elts i would need to buy to fit it to my celica ie (ecu or wiring harness) (2)dous anyone know any place that would do this swop and for how much the 2zr-fae looks the same as the 1zz-fe or 1zz-fed i have serched online & Google for info about this engine swop but have found no info about it other than on Wikipedia & it says that the 2ZR-FAE is to replace the 1ZZ-FED engine in most applications . thanks to any1 who can help
