1997 Toyota Corolla Levin BZ-R
This 1997 Toyota Corolla Levin is the BZ-R model that comes with a 6-speed manual transmission instead of the standard 5-speed manual. Power still comes from a 20-valve 1.6L inline-four with individual throttle bodies, making roughly 163 horsepower. The car shows just over 137,000 kilometers or about 85,000 miles and still looks great for its age and mileage. This AE111 may look mostly stock at a glance, but the car has had quite a few improvements to enhance the driving experience, including a built engine with a Link ECU, Tec-Arts 50mm velocity stacks, Fujitsubo headers, and a TRD muffler. The BZ-R Corolla Levin was the top trim level for the AE111 and came standard with a Limited Slip differential, Toyota’s Super Strut suspension, larger front brakes, and a higher rear spoiler.
