3S-GTE Corolla with lifted suspension, Built for Rally purposes.

I know this sounds insane but I want to do that. Building a E100 rolla, putting in a 3S-GTE with AWD transmission. The build would be for rally purposes so the car needs to be lifted (means aftermarket suspension with longer shock absorbers and springs). The car would be used for rallying in the Desert.
I've searched over the internet but didn't find anything.
Is this project feasible?

Your help would be appreciated.

To be honest with you I've been playing with the same idea, it just comes down to cost for me

In my country the labor is very cheap. Just to give you an idea If I have to change the engine of a car and I provide the engine to the mechanic. The fitting charges he takes is not more than 40-50 US Dollars.

so you want to drop a 3sgte, bolt up 4wd and lift it.

right the 3sgte is fairly straight forward swap in my opinion
how are you going to convert it to 4wd?
raising the suspension, that would have to be custom i would think.
then you would need to cover the whole of the underneath with metal sheet, just to save you the trouble if you were to bottom it out
