First of all I'd like to say hello to all of you ! My name's Damian, I'm 20 and i live in Poland. I've been browsing the net looking for some interesting E11 and I found your Club, I like your cars much! :)

Here's mine. 2001 E11 FL 1.6 VVT-i. It's not a G6 (SR on your market?) but a SOL version, so it has almost everything that could be ordered that time.

177 000 kilometers run - still in good condition :) Some pics !

Recent mod - yellow fogs :)

alloys - O.Z. made for Toyota - I don't know if they were accesories or came out on a particular Toyota model but I think they fit. I also changed the gear shift knob, stock sucks!

Now I look for a Celica driving wheel :) Then maybe some Helix Speakers...

In the future I'd like to put a TTE (or looking like one, because of the price...) wing at the back, maybe lower it a bit... And white O.Z. Superturismo next year.. Front spoiler from the SR (G6) version would be nice too.. :) I'm thinking about the colour of the calippers - red? Yellow?

Sorry for any mistakes I've made, I know my english is not perfect.. :)

Hope you like the car, greetings from Poland !

Very nice! And Welcome to the club, we do like an E11 on here, and yours is lovely.

Posted

Thank you, the photo of your car I found via google images made me come here!

Posted

Very nice welcome! Im wanting to do the same mod with my fog lights. Did you use a tint film like laminx?

Posted

Yes, that's what I did :P


Posted

Welcome to the TOC, that's a mighty nice looking E11 :)

Posted

Welcome to TOC

Love that more and more of these E11's are popping up, lovely car :) are they standard toyota alloys? As there lovely!! Remind me of old school escort RS Turbo wheels :thumbsup:

Loads of different parts avalible for these cars - yes the top model sold in the uk was the SR, it was also called G6R in most european countrys too.

Nice looking motor.

A well looked after, and nice E11 B)

Posted

Thank you, not much done so far, but imo it's better to do less but more tasteful job than hurt the car...

Well, may I ask for some links to the E11 FL here? I'd like to see some projects (and " steal " some ideas maybe? :D ) but I've already found one or two.. Maybe there are some more? :)

And hmm - what would you change / add here?

As I said I thought about painting the calipers - wondering about the colour.. Suggestions?

As my friend did a VT... What do you think about sticker bomb in this place?

Paint the callipers red they will stand out and look good ;)

They look nice in blue :) but would look the nuts in red...

Hi Damian, welcome to TOC. Your FL is looking good. I'd leave the calipers blue. I have a pre facelifted E11 - a 1998 SR and that's had a lot of work done to it, most of it would be suitable for your car. Have a look at my website and see what I've done.

Hey ! :)

Finally I decided to drop my Corolla a little bit. So, welcome the TTE Springs !

Recently I've changed a lot in suspension like dampers, rod ties etc (polish roads ain't best on earth..), oil, all the filters etc - typical but quite expensive (suspension mostly). Anyway, now I enjoy the silence from suspension and explore all the noises of the plastics inside the car :P

Oh, I also bought a tower bar from G6 (gotta put it on its place in the car) and changed the wheels - winter setup on board :)

Very nice dude little drop looks good but i say slam it!

Hello Damian,

first of all, your car looks very nice, keep this condition going forward :)

I am also planning to make some changes in the suspension. How many centimeter is your car lower with this TTE system? What this TTE system contains exactly? Is this possible to order in a package? Approximately, how much was this change? The body of the car is not reaching into the wheels e.g. on a bump? (What are the parameters of your rims and tyres? )

Pisti

p.s. sry for the lot questions :)

Well, I bought a TTE Spring Kit (proper for E10 and E11 AM 28029 AM 28030 - part numbers)

dampers - typical Kayaba model for E11 - nothing special but new :) Hope this combination will work for some time.

The car is about 30/35 milimeters lower than it was at the beggining. As far as I know they are not available to buy as a new kit. You have to follow e-bay or something looking for a set of used ones. I was so lucky - a guy i bought them from got them with his E11 but he never put them on a car. I also paid less than for a set of standard springs from Kayaba for example. To be honest - about 25 pounds... Real bargain, I think he just did not know the value of them!

Fortuneatly After 1500 kilometers after a change I found only one speed bump that wanted to kiss my exhaust :D On the other hand I do not drive with morde than 3 people on board.

My wheels - 195/55/15, 6J and 185/60/15, 7J

No problems with those setups

No problem, we are here to ask and gather our knowledge. :)

I hope you will forgive me for all the language mistakes if there are any :)

Posted

Nice, thank you for these informations! :)

Posted

Car looks great :thumbsup: whats next for it?

TTE springs are just rebranded Eibach springs ;)

Posted

Thank you :)

Well, I've got a few ideas.. Depends on cash :)

I'd love to change my wheels when my tires are bald, for example hmm, 16' OZ Superturismo orrr 15' sth like that

bbec1db727fe9bbdb0e941d87f20c1b0.JPG

What's more.. Sr version steering wheel, exhaust, front lip and a little changes in audio, TTE spoiler..

Just plans, I'll write when something changes, greetins from Poland :)
