My 1.4l Corolla has VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing, but this 1.8l T-sport actually VVTL-i (Variable Valve Timing and Lift). You can hear the lift happening a bit after 6000rpm, around 6200rpm. I dont know if many knows about VVTL-i, its not as common as VVT-i
@Jamie McPhilbin it's not VVT, it's VVTL. VVT is only cam phasing, VVTL is cam phasing + variable valve lift. You can easily notice the change in engine sound around 6.000 RPM when higher lift cam profile is activated.
What actually is addictive is the Vvtl kick, especially in 1st & 2nd gear. You will understand once you drive one of these (or Celica TS, for that matter).

@@adodoes8770 You've made a wise decision, while Corolla/Celica TS is certainly a fun car to own, 2ZZ-GE can be costly to repair. After 2 years of ownership, I pushed my TS a little bit too hard on a highway (like in a video, but for an extensive period of time) and spun one of the rod bearings a long way from home. Since the engine was rebuilt once by previous owner (poorly, as it later turned out), it wasn't worth it to rebuild it again, I had to get a whole different engine from imported Celica GTS and just to be safe, replace all the rod bearings, seals, bolts, resurface the head. All in all, with cost of a tow-truck and a backup car during the time it took to put my Corolla back on the road I ended up paying 70% of my car's retail price (nearly $3k) just for that single repair. Of course, I've had 0 issues with it since then to this day (it makes the right power and consumes absolutely no oil on the contrary to the first engine), but the fact remains - I would've never been able to afford that repair if I was still in college and would probably have to sell the car at a massive loss (30-40% of its initial value). I hate to say it, but as a college student, you'll be better off with Golf V GTI or an EP3 Type R as your first car, their engines are pretty much bulletproof and the parts can be easily found for cheap, which is often not a case with 2ZZ-GE - it's a great engine, but you have to look for one in a good condition and continue to take care about it.

I have never heard about this Corolla variant before, but by looking at the numbers and hearing how it sounds, this was a worthy competitor to the EP3 Honda Civic Type R back then.
Not really, it was not nearly as fast and not circuit ready like the Ep3 was. The compressor was nice with 230 hp, but still not the sharpness. The Celica was a better comparison.
