2001 E11 Corolla Advice

Hi there

Im new to the TOC, but I've read a few threads as a guest and since you guys seemed pretty knowledgeable and quick to reply i thought id sign up :)

Im also looking for advice on a couple of things.

My corolla is a silver 2001 E11 Corolla GS liftback model. It has the 1.4 VVTI engine (4ZZ-FE)

Basically id like to increase the performance a little (who doesnt?)

Since budget is limited, i was thinking about a new filter. Do you think id be better sticking to a K&N panel filter or opting for a 57i gen2 induction kit? also, cold air or short ram?

Also id like a new pair of alloys, id love a set of 17's but ive heard that when the car is full, ie 4 other persons sitting in it, the 17's can catch the rear wheel wells? :(

i currently have beaten up steel wheels, 175/65/R14 iirc, ill check in the morning. id probably opt to get 205/40/R17's if i upgraded. think i should stick to getting new 195/50/R15's?

Ive also read madvinegars thread, he mentions replacing pistons/crankshafts etc on the 4zzfe with 1zzfe ones? thoughts?

i appreciate this is a massive ask for advice from a total noob, its also pretty vague. but all advice is much appreciated :)

Hey there. Thats true about 205/40-17 wheels is that it will scratch if you have lowerd you'r corolla. Like my'n is lowerd about 35mm front and back. It scratches if you have 2 in the back. Go and check my topic about my corolla!

Hi Welcome to TOC.

It's not the size of the wheels that make it rub it's the size of tyres on them.

Try this website and have a play with the figures.

Yea i know. You could strech them a little bit. I will strech myn 205 to 195 when i have to ;) Or when you have to get peapole in your car just say like i say allways. I did only buy this car to me and my girl friend ! :D That why it has only 3 doors ;)
