hmmm thanks for the replies peoplez. I don't want to convert to manual as I want to keep the car as stock as possible. Other thing is I am getting pretty fuel economy (10L/100km) and I want to keep it this way, what do you guys reckon if I get a webber carby and a bigger exhaust running with the original 3 speed auto. Would it affect the fuel economy and will the power gained be significant enough to warrant this mod. I am not looking for a race car, just a good daily driver. A car that will take off a lot faster and a**holes wont tailgate me all the time LOL. if that makes sense. (power equivalent to maybe a 2000 lancer) Do you guys reckon that;s a good idea or better off to go with a 5k or 7ke. If i go with the option of webber and exhaust willing to spend $1500 to get it done in a shop. I guess what I am saying is i want more power! after driving the car as it is for so long Sorry for being a noob and if the above does not make sense. ps thanks again.

My budget rougly 5k

Thanks a lot guys for the reply. I live in sydney and 7ke does not sound like a bad idea. Although my car only has 3 speed auto. Do you think I will need to upgrade to 4 speed. :)

Hi guys I have a 79 corolla ke55 which is auto. After using it as a daily driver for the past 10 years with the stock 4k engine, I have now decided for bit more power and thus a efi engine. Now if you guys please help me in selecting a good engine and gearbox for my car, that would be greatly appreciated. I am not after too much horse pwer , anything above 75kw I am happy with. I want to keep the car auto. If you or a friend/shop does this type of work, I am more than happy to pay you to do the job. Thanks and kind regards
