TWM Performance, but you have an FD2 (yeah? ... Don't feel like looking through post history to check), which means you could use the hybrid racing ones which are like a bearing and not a solid piece of brass.

Yeh fd2, probably get the HR bushings + short shift kit too. Better be a worthwhile investment

I know a few people with Automatic FDs and they've never had a problem nor have I heard of anyone with major problems.
Just maintain the fluids and dont do D-Slammers and you should be fine.

Do bushings first though man, then do your shifter, but do shifter and base bushings, it will eliminate that spongey feel and give you a solid shift

My mate test drove the 9th Gen and a Corolla SX and said the 9th gen had no guts at lower RPMs, relative to the Corolla. He said he felt like he had to push his foot down more on the accelerator to get the car moving.
The Corolla had much better pick up and more torque.
I'd recommend the Corolla over a 8th/9th gen.

True True. When I drive mums 2009 Corolla its quicker down low but top end FD is hands down better.
The only downside to the corolla is its gearbox. Its only 4 speed and its stupid as. Never knows which gear to be in.
I come out of a round about at about 40km-50km/h with m foot barely on the accelerator and its in second gear at about 4,000 revs.
As of Luxury/Comfort I'd pick a facelift FD2. Pre facelift is fine but im not a fan of the Grey leather. 2009 + FD2 for the black leather and sunroof
Apart from the gearbox Corollas are fun to drive. Zippy little things and handles VERY well.

In regards to 9th gen not as zippy as a corolla. Compared to the previous gen corolla, the 9th gen feels heaps zippy compared to the corolla (sedan), but that could just be the particular one i drove. Also drove a different one (hatch) and that one felt zippy though. Havent driven the new ones yet
Comparing to an FD however, handling, seating position and interior hands down is better than the corolla lol

I'd personally get it fixed from a professional.
Doesn't matter how much tape you put on it, it looks like it's going to pop out again, anyway.
I suspect the bottom of your wheel guard where the bumper is screwed in, is where the real problem is - you might have to stretch the bumper around the car a bit more so that it wraps around the rear of the car perfectly. At the moment, it looks too loose, which is why it keeps popping out.

I'm really liking the front ends of the hatches. I think they would great with the right wheels. The back end looks like 50/50 though IMO. I'm thinking of getting one.get a bmw 1serie
Best hatch in market atm,bigger engines and much better drive

I'm getting high 6's atm. My rear tyres are almost down to the wires so that might have something to do with it.
Regardless I can get 600+ out of a tank easy. The stop start shit helps. Honda tell massive porkies about what the hybrid should get and what it does.

Wouldnt mind a photo shoot with the new wheels.

Do you guys know where I can get aftermarket LCAs and Subframe braces?
Tried looking on Function 7's website but nothing for the 8th gen.
I want some bling bling at the rear!
Also, Does the beaks bar hang low? Scared it might get snagged on something when I drive and rip my rear end apart.

17x9+45 fits if you remove your plastic liner near the petrol line.
So 8.5+42 should work. Depends how low your car is and if its on coilovers or not.

On another note, is there any way to get a tow bar if you have a rear lip? I need a bar for bicycle rack because electric bicycles don't exactly fit on roof racks since longer wheel base on those bikes + good luck getting 40KG of bicycle up there, lol.
You have a 2010 model (according to your other thread), I said 2011. $750? ... it's certainly not worth that much, in my opinion.

Yeah, I paid $750 for it. I find it to be pretty good for what it is, integrated and all. Have had nightmares with the Parrot system I used to have in my Corolla, paid nearly $900 back in the very old days for that one.

For the sensor I used a 22mm drill to make a hole in the tube.

Brands shouldnt matter. Its been proven that intakes dont increase power unless you tune your car.
I used to use an A3 pod filter. They won AutoSalon few years ago for best flow beating K&N and other leading brands.
A3 only costs $30 - $40 depending where you go. The Drift brand and AutoBarn pod filters sell for about the same price.
So in that case I went for the A3. Same shit really.. Its all noise

Well lip can't be fixed not a OEM part + same with the bar
Red badge was given to me from my mate who had the grille ( changing color later)
