I would clean it up...cut the rust out of it (yes, there will be rust on a KE  ) and give it a nice respray.
the motor in your car is a 4k-c right? If you read up on toyota engine codes you will notice that the 4 stands for bore/stroke revision (i.e. the displacement of the motor, in this case a 1.3l)
the K is the block type, now here is the kicker. You will also notice a K in your chassis type i.e. KE55 i think yours would be. This means that any 'K' type motor can pretty much bolt right up. When u stray to a different type of motor i.e. 1'G'gte
it normally lives in a 'G' type chassis so getting it to bolt up to a 'K' type is where the money comes in.
the C stands for Carburettor. It refers to the method of fuel entry to the motor.
If you were serious about doing up the motor, I would recommend a rebuild identical motor if u wanna keep it stock and running great (K motors run forever...and ever....and ever )
or look at other K motors. Guys on here will know heaps more than me about this series, but I think there is such an animal as a 7K-E (not sure what displacement it is, but its fuel injected so should be more effiecnt and powerful, just not sure how much ) After that a nice 2 - 2 1/2 inch exhaust, decent 15's and tints you will have a really neat ride.
Just remember, having a car that runs like crap wether its new or not doesnt reflect well on you, but if you have an older car that runs sweet and sounds/feels good to drive people will see u in a much better light, like someone who takes pride in his possessions and appearance.
In closing, there is a wealth of info on this forum from people who have done all manner or upgrades/conversions on K series cars, its well worth the search. Good Luck dude!
P.S. I used to own a KE55, and it WAS a weapon!! I loved it!
