much depends on the shop (there are 2 systems of charging by "book hours"), and intervals close to 60,000, 120,000 and 180,000 it is common to find people skipping over the 60,000 mark, but close to 100,120,000 is more necessary....but since you are in there, most recommend doing to water pump, and other not easily accessible items....

The FA 4E engine used in Corollas from 1993 t0 1997 and the new family of ZZ-FE 1.8L engines used in Corollas from '98 to 2006, even the newer ZZ-FE used starting in 2006 for the 2007 model year in the USA do not have a timing belt. The cam is chain driven

that is true....in which you will know it is in need of repair as you hear the unnecessary "clacking" of the chain against the tensioner internally....
