The ECM should support manual shifting for it to work. The + and - switch of the floor shifter and sw switch are just parallel connections going to the ECM.

There are two bolt patterns for corollas depending on chassis code. E170 = 5x100(USDM Corolla, asian, GCC Corolla/Corolla Altis, etc). E180 = 5x114.3 (EU Corolla, Auris, USDM iM, China Corolla, etc.)

PCD is 5x114 so it is not bolt on to a Corolla which needa 5x100.. You would need a pcd converter but offset is already 39mm so adding a converter with typical thickness of 25mm would result in a 14mm offset which would be too low, unless you want your wheels to poke out of the wheel well.

The factory mic is integrated behind the map light panel. Wiring to the non-entune radio is as attached. There are 5 wires for the mic. Pins 4, 5, 6, 18 and 19 of the 28 pin connector (E111).

Is the trunk empty or do you sound system (amps/sub box) inside? Is the rear gap really smaller than the front?

Sorry, I mean the lowest amount of drop from stock height. (Least drop in ride height.)

Eco engine is 2ZR-FAE (non eco is 2ZR-FE) which has variable lift aside from dual variable valve timing. It alsp has higher compression as previously mentioned.

Eibach is a good choice. A lot of Corollas in the Philippines are using it and reports comfortable ride with the not so good Philippine road conditions. I'm waiting for my TRD springs since I need the lowest poasible drop.

It will depend on what you want to achieve with the lowering springs. 1. Looks is the priority at the expense of scraping your bumper or exhaust piping over some high speedbumps or ramps. Willing to sacrifice ride comfort as these are stiffer springs since they have the lowest drops. - D2 has...

The coating will be worn when you break in the newly painted rotors. What will be left are the coating/paint on the area that isn't in contact with the brake pads. Those coatings are only useful for rust prevention and nothing else.

Yes, those are mine. The gated shifter is the original one. It is standard on all Philippine market CVT Corolla Altis. However, those won't fit your transmission since it has M +/- and not "S" and "B".

I'll just leave these here. The right one is has leather shift knob but the lower chrome part is not interchangeable because they have different key slots.

You can actually remove the ring that came from the original shifter boot and replace with a generic ring. If you remove the top plate with the prndm from the shifter assy you can see from the bottom that this ring is only held by plastic tie wrap. That TRD shifter though is made for gated AT...

On my entune non nav unit (100149). I just ground the parking brake pin and remove the VSS pin from the connector to go around the blue screen. You love the automatic sound levelizer function though since it is dependent on the speed signal being read by the av unit through the vss. You can...

Search for "SPC ez shim 75600" or "specialty product 75600" for rear camber/toe shims for corolla on ebay or amazon. If you have rear discs, you will also need spacers to align caliper to rotor. Look for "spc ez shim spacer 75970".
