After realizing i gotta put a couple quarts in between oil changes. I figured i might start saving for a engine rebuild. I'm only at 170,000m though but i burn oil like no other... Is there any other way to fix that or am i just stupid trying to believe there is a other way.

my celica is having the same problem. my mechanic told me to buy a product called restorer (the 4 cylinder kind) it just fills in scratches in place like the cylinder walls to prevent friction. it help a little. he said this product is hit and miss. he also said that with toyota engines the easiest thing to do is to just replace all the seals and gaskets. i may do this. but i'm looking into doing the gt4 swap next summer maybe so idk.
