Geos, Toyota converting Chevy owners Options

[97lestyousay]

I was just thinking about how I used to have and buy mostly Chevys then bought a 91 Geo Prizm.
I learned about the dependablity of the 7a and other Toyotas. I think other people have been converted this way.

i bet the geo is a light car too. swaping a 3s into it would make it a nice sleeper. but i bet there is very little room in the bay for things

The 2nd gen prizm is smaller but not that much smaller. I own one. An option on the 2nd gen Prizm LSI is the 7A-FE engine, its an upgrade from the base 1.6L 4A-FE. I know this because when I go to get oil filers it asks me if I have a 4A-FE or a 7A-FE I would assume then that you can do any 4A engine swaps with no more difficulty than an ST. Maybe even enough room for a 3S?


Yes it is true that Prizms are about 95% the same mechanical parts as a Corolla and come off the very same assembly line. Over half of the parts in my car have toyota stamped on them, and Ive used many replacement corolla parts. They are typically 1000 dollars less sale price than an identical Corolla of the same year, condition and mileage, and they use the same oil filter as my GT as well.
