I've actually dropped some sketches off at a local metal supplier. They're gonna cut some pieces out of 1/4" plate with a waterjet for me. I'm essentially trying to fabricate spring spacers for the rear. But the kicker is I cut the rear OEM spring perches off of my donor xd axle. They will sit on top of my custom made spring spacers pushing the shock mount up as well. 3-4" of lift on stock springs and shocks is the plan. There won't be any extra suspension travel but like we said. . this isn't for serious off roading. The front will basically a copy of ctscotts crashy.

And these are cheap enough 45 USD on amazon and would work to hide the sins after the BFH and cutting.

I could see it being good for both a lifted soft roader or a slammed hot hatch for sure.

Yup, I tried practically every salvage yard in the province and Nova Scotia. Searched kijiji and posted on NBAutoEnthusiasts. I ended up getting my engine from Ohio via Ebay. Got the harness, ecu etc from eBay too and my mount from an online Toyota dealer.

Here's a listing for a '14 Corolla being parted out in Hampton:

Thanks, I have that saved already. I saw you were a fellow NB'r and was going to hit you up for advice when swap time came. I won't be doing that until my engine dies enough and that could take 100K more based on past history with Toyota. or if I come accross some extra $$

Will do, there are 2-3 styles on there and I'm going to get the ones that will fit best after clearancing the wells.

Right on. Yeah, the longevity of the 1nz is legendary which is unforunate as I have one for sale with just over 180K on it. Best of luck with your project. It sounds really cool.
